Maybe the US boats still have better tehcnology, maybe not, i cannot judge that. But by numbers they must cover a global operaiton field, while China can concentrate its fleet near its own coast, and under missile' and aircrafts' protective umbrellas. High tech is nice, but bigger numbers and short logistical supply lines also have their charms.

Its also said the Chinese are working on superior submarine detection techniques, like Russia.

The next war will likely be not fought near the US west coast, but near and at Taiwan and in the South Chinese Sea. Home advantage for China.
