A top U.S. Navy admiral told Congress that China has “amazing submarines,” including more nuclear-powered vessels than the United States.

Vice Adm. Joseph Mulloy, deputy chief of naval operations for capabilities and resources, told the House Armed Services Committee’s seapower subcommittee Wednesday that he was impressed with China’s naval expansion.

“We know they are out experimenting and looking at operating and clearly want to be in this world of advanced submarines,” the officer said, Reuters reported.
