Advanced destroyers boost combat capability of PLA

Sorry to bust your ill-informed knowledge, IN had planned 7 confirmed Kolkata class destroyers in which last four are more upgraded. Further IN is already planning to increase Kolkata class by including third batch as well along with all together new cruiser boat.
That's good ... but just in this year PLAN already has 6x type052C + 3x type052D and 1x type052D sea trial ... in JN shipyards there'r 4x 052D hulls in construction and in DL shipyard there'r 2x type052D hulls in construction. So maybe IN has a good plan for ur Kolkata DDG but in China we already built/building 16x type052C/D.:D


I just heard, next year China will add 3rd shipyard for building new type052D DDGs together in South China and type055 DDG building will appear in 2016.:coffee: My personal prediction, numbers of type052C/D in PLAN will be double until to 2018 and Chinese r building more DDGs as possible as we can.

I don't intend to contradict your information. I have just replied to the wrong claim by some poster. What China does matters least to me, what India does that matters most to me. Further we are also increasing the number shipyards.

I don't wish to compare IN & PLAN as both have different fleet structure, different doctrines and different goals. I will contradict any claim which is away from facts and are utter lies.
start with yourself. Do you actually know what the P15 whatever is called.

The Chinese Navy has commissioned three world-class guided missile destroyers, extensively improving the country's maritime combat capability.

The latest of the Type 052D destroyers, the Hefei, was delivered to the South Sea Fleet of the People's Liberation Army Navy on Saturday at a naval base in Sanya, in the island province of Hainan, the PLA Navy said in a statement.

Vice-Admiral Wang Dengping, deputy political commissar of the PLA Navy, told those attending the ship's commissioning ceremony that the Hefei is the most advanced destroyer ever built by China. He said its service would significantly enhance the Navy's joint combat capability and play an important role in safeguarding the nation's maritime interests.

The first Type 052D destroyer, the Kunming, joined the Navy in March last year, while the second, the Changsha, started active service in August.

"All posts on the vessel have been manned by my officers and sailors, since the shipyard technicians who were aboard to help us before the delivery have left," Commander Zhao Yanquan, captain of the Hefei, told China Daily in an exclusive interview on Monday.

"My men have familiarized themselves with the advanced equipment and weapons. In the near future, we will focus on training, aiming to make the ship become fully operational within a short period," he said. "Compared with the Wuhan, a Type 052B ship on which I was deputy captain, the new ship is especially stronger in terms of target detection capacity and air defense capability."

According to earlier reports by Chinese military news websites, the Type 052D destroyer has a full displacement of nearly 7,000 metric tons and a wide range of weapons, including a single-barrel, 130 mm naval gun, a close-in weapon system, anti-aircraft missiles and surface-to-surface cruise missiles. Adopting a host of cutting-edge technologies, the vessel features a low radar signature, a high information level and a state-of-the-art phased array radar.

Cao Weidong, a researcher at the PLA Naval Military Studies Research Institute, said that compared with other PLA Navy ships, the Type 052D has the best radar capability for detecting more targets at a longer distance; the best data link, which enables a joint operation with other ships or aircraft; and the best missile combination for hitting enemy surface vessels, submarines, aircraft and ground targets.

"Its larger displacement means it is able to carry more equipment and weapons, and is powerful enough to protect an aircraft carrier battle group in a long-distance operation," he said.

According to Yin Zhuo, director of the PLA Navy's Expert Consultation Committee, China is also developing the Type 055 destroyer, which has a full displacement of around 10,000 tons and can carry more than 100 missiles.
Personally I don't think Destroyers should be used for Air Defence role for Air Defence Frigates and Corvettes should be equipped more advanced Air Defense Systems. Destroyers should be used to launch cruise or ballistic missiles and totally destroy enemies surface ships and carriers and targets based on enemy land.

I am very well aware of our navy ships. Stop getting personal. It reflects in poor way. FYI P15 is older generation ship while P15 Alpha is newer generation boat while P15 Beta is further upgradtion of its predecessor.

Anti-air armanent is basic requirement for which a ship like destroyer shouldn't depend on corvettes and frigates. I believe on a good sized destroyer there should be balanced load of all types of sensors as well as armanents.

Do you know what the NAME is. As to personal, pretty sure I don't know who you are. Why would it be personal.

Go over the original claim, and go over what you said. I can't believe you don't see the hilarity.

Just in case you don't, google P-15B, hint, it's not called the Kolkata class. Which is what he said.

Hilarity is that beast claims IN has planned three Kolkata class destroyers. Utter lies & spreading misinformation. IN is on the verge of inducting last boats of Kolkata class P15 Alpha class. While 4 more P15 Beta are already under construction. Further IN is planning for heavier tonnage cruiser boat. That is clear information. I will contradict any wrong claim made against IN. This is my claim. P15B is said be named after Karnataka state capital, Bangalore and it is under construction.

Really, never heard of that piece of information. Please provide some creditable links to verify your claims.

Didn't you notice? The keyword is "planning".

Well if they were planning he should be able to provide the link which says the IN is "planning" to build cruisers, unless he just made it up.

P15 B is called Visakhapatnam class. There is only three Kolkata class. This is like saying there is only 6 Lanzhou class is wrong. There is more type 52D, but the Lanzhou is 52C.

Your claim is total bs. You can't even man up and admit your mistake. There is only three kolkata class, if you want to contradict this, bring proof. I'll show you mine.

I seen something to the effect, but at this point, it's most likely just discussion. This forum has a way of putting the wagon before the horse.

I was in an argument about Chinese Indian launch vehicles and they were bring up HLV, a design so far down the line that there's not even a wiki page for it.

Though they are named differently, the external design and armaments are virtually the same.

Indians keep calling it Kolktata, because it only got the title of Vizag class very recently.
