Someone here mentioned that a 3rd shipyard could be used to build 052D Destroyers. What shipyard is that exactly, HP or HD or some other?
I wouldn't be surprised for this to happen, as JN shipyard will certainly be concentrating its efforts on the even larger 055 Cruiser/Destroyer, now and in the future, and perhaps even Dalian.
Anyone got any official news on this?

Anyway, the Chinese naval shipyards are going strong at the present with large production runs of the 052D, 054A and 056.

It is amazing the speed at which PLAN modernisation has taken place and continuing. The rate of prouction and production quality has made a great leap for better. What is even more amazing one never hears Chinese govt or PLAN ever boasting about this.

Keep going... after replacing the old ships... the next run will be for new generation of crafts. The Chinese ship yards are going to be this busy for at least a decade to come.

All the best!

Thanks for your words of encouragement.

The PLAN has already begun the development of next generation of naval platforms many of which should come into being over the next decade.
