Anyone got a list of all the Chinese Naval vessels commissioned in 2017?........i have seen one from Henri.K, but he never updated his list to include the vessels which were silently commissioned into the fleet during the summer, such as one of the 052D Destroyers!

should be the Type 075 Landing Helicopter Dock LHD, this year we may see it sea trial


Why do You think so? To admit I cannot believe with all the watchers and spotters around that the building process of such a massive vessel like an LHD went completely unnoticed.

But what else could it be?

New Chinese naval destroyer outfitted in Shanghai

2018-01-05 14:57 Xinhua Editor: Gu Liping

A new type of China-built navy destroyer is being outfitted at Jiangnan Shipyard (Group) in Shanghai.

Workers are installing conduits and cables in the 10,000-tonne vessel, Zhou Xin, a military representative stationed in the shipyard to oversee the building of the warship, was quoted by the People's Liberation Army Daily as saying.

"Putting the ship in the water is nothing more than building a roughcast house, while outfitting the vessel is like decorating the house," Zhou said in the PLA Daily report published Friday.

The destroyer entered the water in late June 2017, marking a milestone in improving the nation's navy armament system and building a strong and modern navy.

It will be equipped with new air defense, anti-missile, anti-ship and anti-submarine weapons.

Construction of the destroyer has focused on improving the ship's fighting capability, another military representative, Leng Jun, was quoted as saying in the report.

After soliciting opinions from military officers and soldiers, designers changed the original plan for helicopters on the warship, increasing the height of the cabins to improve the passing efficiency, the PLA Daily said.

A new welding technique was explored and used in building the outer hull, which was made of a new type of material, the report said.

To provide a more comfortable environment for soldiers on the ship, workers used new materials to protect against shock and noise and increased ventilation equipment in the destroyer's living cabins.

The vessel will have to undergo planned testing, including equipment operation, berthing and sailing, before it is commissioned for use.
