JEDDAH, Saudi Arabia, Jan. 10 (ChinaMil) -- A Chinese naval fleet arrived at the Port of Jeddah on January 9 for a five-day friendly visit to Saudi Arabia. This is the second time for Chinese naval ships to pay an official visit to Saudi Arabia.

The guided-missile destroyer Harbin, the guided-missile frigate Handan and the comprehensive supply ship Dongpinghu, forming the 24th escort taskforce of the Chinese PLA Navy, have embarked on their foreign port-call voyage after completing the mission of providing escort for merchant ship in the Gulf of Aden and the waters off Somali coast.

The three Chinese naval ships arrived at the Port of Jeddah at 10:00 on January 9, local time. Over 200 persons including Chinese Ambassador to Saudi Arabia Li Huaxin, Consul General of the Chinese Consulate in Jeddah An Wa'er, staff of China-funded institutions, and overseas Chinese as well as representatives of the Royal Saudi Naval Forces (RSNF) were at the pier to welcome the Chinese warships.

During its visit to Saudi Arabia, the taskforce will hold a deck reception, and the commanding officers of the taskforce, including Senior Captain Bai Yaoping and Zhou Pingfei, will call on officers of the Western Fleet of the RSNF. They are also scheduled, together with representatives of the Chinese sailors, to visit the naval tactical center and the maritime fire-fighting simulation center of the RSNF.

In addition, sailors of the two navies will also visit each other's warships.

Saudi Arabia is the first leg of the Chinese naval fleet's voyage of visit to four Western Asia countries, which will continue to bring it to Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait.

It depends on your interests. It's more important to me to find new so sticky thread is good.

Agreed, I had the same feeling "Why again a PLN" Thread ??

We already have now:

Ships and vessels commissioned by PLAN
Chinese Navy (PLAN) News & Discussions
2014, The Beginning Of A New Era For PLAN Build-up

+ a dedicated Type 001/CV-16, Type 001A and submarine topic ... and still some guys who start a new thread for each and every new ship just like that new EW/recce ship already twice ??

I'm not sure if a merger would be an option especially since some guys also post each and every image they find in all threads and then a few weeks again later ... IMO only in their hype to get as much as possible positive ratings !

Ah, yeah. Good logic, bro. It seems like process based discussions.

Design/technology => construction/trial => commission/ceremony => daily operations
/news.

A simple categories based thread for PLAN just cause you missing some info. For me, the most important interest point is the 'new''.

BTW, when people here try to serve his interests/intentions should firstly thank the members who collected the military photos and news in Chinese forums, translate it and repost here.

Just too many intentions and manipulations show up and that's why I hate online forums.

I really dislike the style of response for the 'suggestions'.

Exactly bro, the wording is really uncalled for accusing those suggested it "sticky".

Plain simple. agreed to the suggestion is fine, not agreed to it is ok either way, no need to be rude period.

Agreed. The response is pretty interesting if you studied psychological projection theory.



we should call mind reader @Jlaw to figure it out.
