there is something in life called a strategic deterrent. its not wasting hard earned money.
by placing the submarines there, they are potentially defending a major shipping route used for carrying oil and other exports / imports.
by placing the submarines there, they are in a quick launch mode if they want. and since its close to deep water, it will not be detected easily.
its not necessary to acquire capability only to attack (though time may prove me wrong and say that this was meant to attack, and not defend)
