Please, for the love of everything, stop posting articles about Chinese vaporware. Every announcement or boast from them is a lie.
 
The NATO Janus system is a last resort communications system. Using sound waves to transmit data is a double edged sword since the incoming data will act like active sonar, bounce off the receiving submarine, causing the submarine to essentially hold up a sign saying “hi I’m a submarine and I’m right here”.

Not to mention that Janus became a standard 7 years ago and is alreqdy in the field. Good for the Chinese that they made something "better", but let me know once it's actually deployed in the field.
