Hangor means Shark

The Hangor-class submarine (Chinese Type-39A) is named after PNS Hangor (French Daphne-class), which sank an Indian Navy ship in 1971.

No comfirmation, but likely will be purchased. YJ-18E
Most sensible / likely choice for Hangors along with optionally Babur-IIIs.

Nobody is going to give you hypersonic missiles.

Its already cleared for export. Its designation is YJ-18E. Its not exactly a hypersonic missile. It reaches terminal speed of mach 3. Hypersonics is 5+ mach.
