Just for a point of reference 'HK'............i notice youve given the name of 8th 056 to join the fleets as 'BAYSE'. Yet someone at 'Wiki' has listed the ships name as 'BAISE'. I know its trivial, but which is correct?

I agree............but who knows the real gap in years, technology wise. I mean 17 years is an awful long time in the tech world!.........and the Chinese have a knack of making major progress, very quickly!

It would be interesting to know the hit rates of the other missiles! In conclusion the HQ-9 must be a very good missile indeed............it had some formidable opposition!

Well from reading those reports.....its very clear......its a win to China. :china:

ive forgotton what this thread is all about...........keep it up lads! :rofl:

Just my two pennies worth on the subject on economies posted on this thread......... If you look at the 'US debt clock' and go to the worldwide countries section........you'll see that China's debt is actually coming down.....while the debt in the US and Europe is spiralling out of control...

This thread is so funny! :omghaha: Well, i think we can all say that as China military technology advances at amazing pace...........then i cant see the Chinese having any problems from being a main exporter of arms in the future! Infact, the only hurdle i can see for Chinese arms exporters...

Not quite sure, whats happening at JN shipyard now.........as we havnt seen any recent photos from the shipyard posted on the web. Unless anyone knows differently....then please post images! The last photos we saw, showed what appeared to be the 4th 052D now under construction in the right hand...

Oh yes..........the 6th 052C is the last in that class. Now we wait to see how many 052D's are built. Interestingly............reading on the web.........the US considers the 052D to be still quite some way behind its 'Arleigh Burke' class Destroyers....umm i'am not so sure.........as no one...

Exactly............as armchair admirals, enthusiasts are keen to see ships join the fleet quickly! BUT.......the reality is these ships are huge, and have many very complex machine and electronic systems which need to be installed and tested. Then the ship needs a long time at sea for sea...

To fill in the missing blanks on the 054A Frigate series......does anyone know the following? 1/ Pennant number and name of the 17th 054A Frigate launched in April this year? 2/ The pennant number to be allocated to the 19th vessel, named 'Sanmenxia' just launched at HD shipyard?

Yes..........the Liaoning is used for training, but its obviously a fall on combat ship as well, i mean its armed to its teeth with missile systems for a start. Come on people wake up!............or do you think there is a casino inside?

From latest images at JN shipyard..........it appears that the 4th 052C is now having a final touch up, after recent sea trials, as the pennant number '151' has now been added to the hull. I imagine commissioning of the ship, is now not that far away. So.............that will mean the PLAN...

Yes......and also........ Military radars may not be able to pick up stealth planes.....BUT, the British found out that mobile telephone masts used for mobile phone networks could easily detect stealth planes! :omghaha:

Thats a lot of Destroyers, and would be a massive investment for the Chinese goverment. I do think, that in the second half of this decade 2015-2020, we shall see the PLAN concentrating on larger classes of warship. I do expect to see a decent number of 052D's and the rumoured 055's being...

Huh?........type 057?.........please could you explain in more detail...................where did you read or here this? Can members here when posting, be a bit more explicit with there posts..........many posts made here are a big meaningless. Thanks!

So.......does anyone have any images of the 4th 052D at JN shipyard? Is 4th vessel under construction in one of the hallways......or is it in modules outside? Regarding, next type amphibious ship, whatever designation type it is........instead of being labelled incorrectly as type 081, i have...

Thanks i thought that was the case.........incidently i have tried to register at HSH forums, but i find the cryptic word puzzle in the registration process a hindrance, as it doesnt seem to translate from Chinese to English well! btw: do you think China is going the right way, by designing...

.....who or what is 'POP3' I'am curious?

Whoever posted the original google earth images of this vessel, caused a bit of a storm............coz it ain't no carrier....photos close up at sea level show this to be a barge which carries crane etc to build oil rigs! The narrow part of the barge houses a crane, and the oil rig structures...
