Not only conventional submarine engines, but to be honest, Chinese military engines, including aviation engines and marine engines, have been fully replaced with domestically produced engines in various fields. These engines were not newly developed, but were developed early on and underwent extensive testing before being truly accepted. In the past, due to our inability to provide reliable engines, using foreign engines could easily cause blockages and delays. This problem has been solved. In the field of marine engines in China, the 054b has adopted its own developed next-generation diesel engine. According to the official introduction, the CS16V27 medium and high-speed diesel engine has a propulsion power of 7280kW and a rated power generation of 6400kW. Fuel consumption level ≤ 197g/kWh (propulsion)/195g/kWh (power generation). The 16PA6V-280STC diesel engine of the Type 054A frigate has a single rated power of 5184 kilowatts. In terms of individual power, the CS16V27 four stroke medium to high speed diesel engine is about 40% higher than the 16PA6V-280STC diesel engine. Using four CS16V27 four stroke medium to high speed diesel engines as the power system, it can ensure the maximum speed of the 054B frigate, basically reaching or exceeding 30 knots. Pakistan has obtained this batch of conventional submarine engines, which should be the latest submarine diesel engines from China. After long-term testing, they have been accepted
