My comment:
(1) The report is predicated on
尹卓:东盟各国加强潜艇军购折射经济发展状况. 人民网, Feb. 26, 2010.
http://military.people.com.cn/GB/11036016.html
Note:
(a) 法国的鲉鱼级潜艇
(i) Taiwan does not have this Chinese character 鲉 in 鲉鱼.
(ii) I googled 鲉鱼 and found its English name Scorpionfish." For that, see
Scorpaenidae
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scorpaenidae
(iii) I googled and it appears that there is another translation for the same: 天蝎级.
Anyway, it is
Scorpene-class submarine
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scorp%C3%A8ne_class_submarine
(diesel-electric attack submarine; air-independent propulsion (AIP); jointly developed by the French company DCNS, formerly DCN, and the Spanish company Navantia)
(iv) See also
Wendell Minnick, Malaysia Receives 1st of 2 Diesel Subs. Defense News, Sept. 4, 2009.
http://www.defensenews.com/story.php?i=4265541
(the second will be delivered in 2010)
(b) 尹卓 talks about 长波 and 极长波. But these are not used in English or science. See
Communication with submarines
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communication_with_submarines
(very-low-frequency (VLF) electromagnetic wave and extremely-low-frequency (ELF), respectively, the latter able to travel through the oceans and reach submarines anywhere)
(c) 黑沙鱼雷 Black Shark torpedo
(d) 尹卓 said, "新加坡如果到瑞典去维修."
Singapore has 2 Södermanland class submarine from Sweden. See
(i) Archer class submarine
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archer_class_submarine
(ii) Södermanland
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%B6dermanland
(a province on the southeastern coast of Sweden)
(2) Obviously the VOA report quotes 尹卓 for more. So I found the transcript.
海军少将谈东盟多国狂购潜艇对周边国家的影响. 人民网, Feb. 26, 2010.

(a) I do not know what "3X级潜艇" is. Googled it and found nothing.
But US has three Virginia class submarines. I guess that is it.
(b) For 飞鱼导弹, see
Exocet
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exocet
(a French-built anti-ship missile; "The missile's name was given by M. Guillot, then the technical director at Nord Aviation, after a French word for flying fish (Exocoetidae)")
(c) Soviet K class submarine
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_K_class_submarine
(4) The VOA report mentions 美国西门斯学院的东南亚防务专家萨克雷.阿布扎. That is
