The Royal Thai Navy (RTN) remains undecided whether or not to choose a Chinese-made engine as a substitute for a German-made one for an S26T Yuan-class submarine being assembled for it in China, RTN spokesman Adm Pokkrong Monthatphalin said on Thursday.
Adm Pokkrong was speaking after talks between Adm Chonlathit Nawanukhro, the navy's chief-of-staff in his capacity as chairman of the navy's committee managing the submarine procurement project, and China Shipbuilding & Offshore International Co (CSOC) and China's naval attaché which ran from Tuesday until Thursday.
