China's biggest ever stealth warship takes shape: New pictures reveal progress 'game changing' 175m long ship
PUBLISHED:22:36 GMT, 21 October 2016|UPDATED:22:50 GMT, 21 October 2016
Asia's most powerful warship has been shrouded in mystery since construction began last year at the Jiangnan Changxing shipyards.
Known as a Type 005 destroyer, the vessel is said to be armed with electromagnetic railguns that can shoot down missiles and attack land targets.
Now, leaked images give a glimpse of the battle ship's progress - there appears to be four portals on the stern for sensors and weapons - along with up to 128 vertical launch system cells for missiles.
The leaked images come from China's Internet and distinctively show that the bow (pictured) and stern areas are finished. The bow area appears to be extremely hydrodynamic hull, endure high speeds, have stealth capabilities and is fitted with an enclosed deck
Construction of this 175 meter long ship began in 2015, but officials have been very careful not to reveal major details before completion.
China claims this destroyer will be the equal to the US Navy's Arleigh Burke-class destroyers that are built around the Aegis Combat System and the advanced radar scanner, SPY-1D.
The stern (pictured) area has at least four sections that hold sensors and weapons like towed array sonar, variable depth sonar, towed torpedo decoys and active torpedo defenses. At the center of the photo, you can see the stern module of the Type 055, with several openings under the helipad
Rear Admiral Yin Zhuo of the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) even went so far to describe the Type 055 as a 'game changer in naval warfare.'
The ship is said to have a full displacement of over 14,000 tons and will be launching sometime in late 2017 or early 2018, reports Jeffrey Lin and P.W. Singer withPopular Science.

CHINA'S WARSHIP TO BE A 'GAME CHANGER'
Asia's most powerful warship has been shrouded in mystery since construction began last year at the Jiangnan Changxing shipyards. Called Type 005 destroyer, this vessel is said to be armed with electromagnetic railguns that can shoot down missiles and attack land targets (pictured is an artist impression of Type 005)
Leaked images show the Type 005 destroyer should launch late 207 or early 2018.

And the stern is where the creators packed all of the toys.
This area has at least four sections that hold sensors and weapons like towed array sonar, variable depth sonar, towed torpedo decoys and active torpedo defenses.
Because the ship is 175 meters long and is built with large displacement, the Type 005 will be capable of carry numerous helicopters at once and other technologies such as drones and underwater vehicles.
With the need for more protection on sea, this ship will have the ability to 'fight in the world, expand the political will of the Chinese state, protect Chinese nationals and defend its economic interests,' reports a blog for Tiananmen's Tremendous Achievements.
And because China greatly lacks oversea supply bases, Type 005 will provide more endurance while forces travel at sea.
Popular Science suggests this warship will also have four large AESA radars for 360 degree awareness, due to the fact that the landlocked 'ground warship' electronics test rig at Wuhan is designed in this fashion.
It is also speculated that Type 005 will have up to 128 vertical launch system cells, artillery and electronic warfare systems against enemy threats, as well as multi-domain joint operations with other Chinese assets.

And sensors and communication antennas are set to be placed inside the mast for even more stealth capabilities.
