North Korea possesses the world’s largest number of submarines, followed by the U.S., according to a U.S. online media outlet.
Business Insider said that the North has a total of 78 regular and midget submarines, while the U.S. has 72 submarines. Its analysis is based on data from the Global Firepower, a military power evaluation organization.
China ranked third with 69 submarines, followed by Russia with 63 submarines and Iran with 31 submarines. South Korea has only 14 submarines while Japan has 16 submarines, according to the BI analysis.
Business Insider pointed out that the North’s lead is merely because of the “pure numbers,” not the quality of its submarine fleets.
