Analysis of Technology Level by Component Technologies of a Submarine System and Recommendations

Key Points

• The study aims to systematically assess the current state of domestic submarine technology by classifying and evaluating its component technologies.
• Classified submarine technologies into 8 major categories and 18 subcategories.
• Conducted quantitative assessments of technology levels using expert surveys via the Delphi method.
• Applied weighted averages to calculate major category technology levels based on importance rankings.
• All major classes of submarine component technologies were rated within the 80-89% range, indicating an advanced level.
• Hull and combat system technologies exhibited relatively high levels.
• System integration and propulsion technologies, despite being core technologies, received comparatively lower evaluations.
