Reason why you don't see anything like DRDO publishes is probably because of lack of highly qualified Mandarin Translators.

do you have to be provocative ? Like seriously its like kinder garden behaviour.
Does it make you feel good of yourself now?
I still remember yall reading The Deterrent 's posts on our missiles , and yall couldn't come up with logical arguments against his claims/info , Refrain from this brain fog behaviour . So what if our initial tech was based upon chinese or DPRK's tech? does that make our missiles less then others? It is still an enough threat to cause GOI to fast track BMD .
We developed S2 , S3 by our own efforts , Ababeel too , reduced the weight of the Ghauri to make a second version of it , Made the S1A and tested diff versions of it and a RV which was a testbed for the Ababeel RV . This all happened with a miniscule budget and worker pool .
Kher , dont make these childish statements again.
Removed some off-topic posts.

Really, very dubious. S4 design is much more modern (similar, close to western ones) than the type 094 which looks very basic, old (built like a workaround solution in the 'garage' quickly in order to have or just show something and with strong russian help, ToT)... No doubt S4 is more quieter than type 094 which has a very bad reputation; because of its poor quality, reliability it is doesn't navigate much, and when it does, it doesn't sail beyond China sea and so far its missiles do not carry (thermo)nuclear wharheads permanently contrary to western, russian ( and indian ?) ones
But it has indeed 12 tubes and 2*75MW reactors.

First public SLBM test: Why China's Pacific missile launch is a strategic message for Indo Pacific region - BusinessToday
The latest launch follows another major milestone in September 2024, when China publicly announced the firing of an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) into the Pacific Ocean — the country's first publicly acknowledged long-range Pacific missile test since 1980.
China Pacific SLBM Test: Shift to Continuous Sea Deterrence
Defense analysts break down China's historic Pacific SLBM test, the Type 094 SSBN, and the PLAN’s shift toward Continuous At-Sea Deterrence (CASD).

Look at type 094 design, ridiculous, old one, how can one compare to S4... Tss...
It seems that China's underwater, deterrent patrol starts really only from now...
The photo of last Chinese SLBM test shows it is a copy of russian slbms and so it doesn't match West in the technology of underwater missile ejection

Apple map updates of INS Varsha shows massive infrastructure expansion. Look like an airbase is also being made for support purposes. I was surprised by the amount of guard check posts every 50 or so meters.
The only copy of the russian SLBM was the JL1 i think , JL2/3 are bigger and better imoFirst public SLBM test: Why China's Pacific missile launch is a strategic message for Indo Pacific region - BusinessToday
