North Korea is on an “aggressive schedule” to build and deploy its first ballistic missile submarine, satellite imagery has suggested.
Images suggest that work is underway at the Sinpo South Shipyard to build a new submarine, according to 38 North, which carries out analysis on North Korea.

卫星图像显示朝鲜正“野心勃勃”加紧建造和部署他们的第一艘弹道导弹潜艇。根据“38North”网站的披露卫星图像显示新浦南造船厂正在建造一艘新潜艇,“38North”是一个专门分析研究北朝鲜和其周边动向的网站。

The institute, based in Washington, posted the satellite images on its website.

It said: “Commercial satellite imagery of the Sinpo South Shipyard from November 5 indicates that North Korea is on an aggressive schedule to build and deploy its first operational ballistic missile submarine.
“The continued movement of parts and components into and out of the parts yards adjacent to the construction halls indicates an ongoing shipbuilding program.”

它说：“商业卫星11.5号捕捉的新浦南造船厂图像表明朝鲜正在加紧建造和部署其第一艘可操作的弹道导弹潜艇。持续的零部件进出建造船坞毗邻的零部件堆场，表明正在进行的造船计划。”

According to 38 North, the presence of what appeared to be sections of a submarine’s pressure hull in the yards suggests a new submarine was being built – possibly a SINPO-C ballistic missile submarine (SSB), the follow-on to the current SINPO-class experimental ballistic missile submarine (SSBA).

根据38 North的披露，在零部件堆场出现的部件很明显是潜艇耐压壳体分段，这说明一艘新潜艇正在被建造，很有可能是SINPO-C（新浦-C）弹道导弹潜艇(简称SSB)，是基于现有的SINPO-class（又叫Gorae Class，新浦-B级）试验性弹道导弹潜艇(SSBA)而来的。

It said throughout 2017 there had been continued movement of parts and components in and out of two parts yards next to the constructions halls in the centre of the shipyard, as well as movement of the gantry and tower cranes that service the yards.

它说整个2017年造船厂中心的建造船坞毗邻的两个零部件堆场始终有各种零部件不断地进进出出，同时造船厂的龙门架和塔吊也不停地在船坞上面工作。



Prolonged activity – according to 38 North, there has been activity throughout 2017

根据38 North披露，整个2017年有长期持续性的活动
 


“These activities suggest a prolonged and ongoing shipbuilding program, which is supported by the fact that the Sinpo South Shipyard has historically been the primary manufacturer of large submarines for the Korean People’s Navy (KPN),” it added.

“这些活动显示了长时间持续进行的造船过程，而已知事实也说明这一点，新浦南船厂历来是朝鲜人民海军（KPN）的大型潜艇的主要制造商”它补充说。

In September the UK’s leading defence think tank, the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) found that the likelihood of war with North Korea had increased markedly thanks to the rapid nuclear advances by Kim Jong-un’s regime and the Trump administration’s position that ‘classical deterrence theory’ is no longer working.

九月份英国主要的国防智库－皇家联合服务研究所（RUSI）发现与朝鲜发生战争的可能性已经显着地增加，这是因为金正恩政权领导下的快速的核能进展，特朗普政府所谓的“核威慑论”已经不再适用了。
