The Romeo-MOD (Simpo-C)-class diesel-electric missile submarine is increasing the threat from the North-Korea

Above the text is an image of the Romeo-MOD (Simpo-C) class multirole submarine of North-Korea. Even if those submarines might look primitive, they must be found before they can be destroyed. That means that even the old-fashion submarine can be a threat to other countries. When a submarine is shot its missiles, destroying that thing does not affect its operation. 

There is a possibility that Kim Jong-Un would make his version of the Status-6 giant 100 mt. nuclear torpedo. The North-Korean version of this Status-6 system could be the Romeo-class submarine, which is equipped with a nuclear bomb and filled with lithium batteries. And this kind of system must ever underestimate, what the case when a Swedish submarine sunk the U.S fleet carrier shown. 

This kind of submarine can follow things like merchant ships to the coast of the USA or some other country, and then open fire with its missiles. The fact is that if this kind of submarine can have fuel supply it can also operate near the European borders. In this kind of scenario, the submarine would follow the oil tanker, which can deliver the diesel-oil to its engines by using the underwater tanking equipment. 

That means that the fuel transfer tubes can be laid from the bottom of the merchant ship, and the submarine can use a snorkel-system during the entire operation. The merchant ship would deny the location of the submarine, and in theory, it can come even to European coasts. The fact is that we still remember, how the Swedish submarine sank U.S aircraft carrier, and that makes these kinds of submarines dangerous.
