8-10 of them will do. Leave the double digit amount for 055. :D
there is long time before that 055 get matured, i think 052D wil be the most powerful DDG in CHinese fleet in the next 10 years.

Number matters, we need at least 30 of it

How many 056 and 056A we had launched?

The radar and combat system maybe new but most weaponry are mature. 055 will not need much time to mature and accustom to. Plus 055 will be the equivalent or superior of Alreigh Burke. Fully capable of anti surface, anti air and anti submarine warfare which makes them idea to equip in high number

Just had a short chat with my sources at the GAD。

Two guys confirmed to me that the steel cutting ceremony for the lead ship of Type 055 DDG was indeed held days ago at what you know。:D

Pics of modules are expected to appear within 8-10 months。

Congrats to all。:cheers:

2014 has indeed opened a new chapter in the history of PLAN。:enjoy:
