Really? Can you find a diagram of Los Angeles class submarines and tell

where the lifeboats are?


They have no rubber dingies that can be inflated if the sub has surfaced ?


I don't know the full details, but the problem there is "surfacing".


And doesn't the USA have the DSRV which could theoretically rescue
people from a sub ? (China just bought a similar sub from the UK for
submarine rescues, it can rescue 19 at a time).


Yes. In theory. Just like they have escape trunks. Makes Mom feel good at
home.
