[TEXAS BATTLESTAR]

This is the existing one, and there will come up with an improved version Type 052D later.

Both would be part of the carrier battle group.

Thanks for the info.

They are useless little midget subs

Maybe not so useless if the Choenan story is true.

I don't know if those subs are that useless, they sunk the S.Korean corvette ship Cheonnan (assuming the NK did use it).

Hmmm...from the looks of this map I say China could use a secret mountain base somewhere in the Tibetan plateau.

China's Future Carrier Battle Groups (in another thread) :

I think this is the improved version of the Ulyanovsk nuclear supercarrier, it gonna be close to 100,000 tons of displacement.

 

[ChineseTiger1986]

The island structure of that aircraft carrier convinces me it is actually based on the Ulyanovsk class supercarrier.

Looks like they are going for a 7th (Or I wonder if that could be the eigth sections while the 7th is already further along away from view)
