With the advancement of technology, China is mass-producing modern battleships.
Beijing Time In May 2018, the Chinese Mainland Military Forum exposed a group of CG photos of the PLA 057 guided missile frigate.

The 057-class guided missile frigate will adopt the power arrangement of dual-gas turbines and dual-diesel generators, and will use the power distribution center to rationally output power from the thrusters and the power supply of the entire ship.

There is speculation that the 057 missile frigate will be equipped with a new type of electric propeller that can be rotated and retracted in the lower part of the hull.

The main propeller of the 057-class guided missile frigate will use a 5-bladed variable-pitch propeller.

According to reliable sources, the Chinese Navy’s fourth-generation guided missile frigate, the 057-class frigates, has been designed and the frigate has already started construction.

In the aircraft carrier formation, the 057-class guided missile frigate is the closest ship to the aircraft carrier and is equipped with medium-range air-defence missiles, so it is called "guard with a knife."

The 057-class missile frigate is not a simple enlargement of the 054A frigate, and it can only be seen when it is time to launch. However, it is still possible to give it a “portrait” based on “tactical needs” and “technical possibilities”.

An important task of the 057-class guided missile frigate (right) is anti-submarine warfare. This class of frigate has been greatly improved compared to the 054A (left).

Sorry but this is all speculation and/or fanboy CGIs grabbed from random forum threads. There has been, to date, no authoritative word on the final configuration or shape of the Type 054B.

Yes, this was posted some time ago on the 054 thread. It was considered to be fan speculation, not anything of official value.

Is there a link for what is written in the first post? Also, what is this doing in the Air Warfare forum?
