Romeo-class submarine equipment records. Variants, orders and quantities are shown as reported in each inventory source; coverage is incomplete.
Naval inventory of the source class and listed configurations; excludes orders and construction. Source-year holdings, not immediately deployable strength.
Reported count for Type-033. Service scope: Korean People's Navy; does not replace a national total. 1 distinct count cell(s) from the same source list; shared rowspan cells counted once. Excludes retired/reserve/on-order rows. Count column(s): in service: 20. Origin: unstated. The listed variants/roles are the scope, not an immediately deployable count. The components do not establish one inventory census date; the stored date is the retrieved source snapshot.
