I was just looking up Norfolk naval base on google map, and found out that if you zoom right in they show you an area shot of the base and ships at an angle, so it looks 3D, and the images are pretty crisp by google map standards, it was quite interesting.

Three type 054As in various stages of completion.

So far 11 of them has been comissioned and 2 others launched.
So 15 so far plus the two more we see here in dry dock(?)

At least 16 will be launched I think before PLAN transitions to a new class.
Modern warships like these are long overdue for the Navy of the most populous country in the world.

The first type 054A was launched on 30th September 2006.
