So indeed I need to correct my post from yesterday - sorry for that - but as it seems by the video posted, the CV-17 'Shandong' is not in the drydock at Dalian shipyard, since this is occupied by a large civiil vessel.

By the way it gives a great comparison to the size of a Type 055 DDG.

Pardon, but what do you want to show with this comparison? How large the INS Vikrant is ... but then please use the same scale. Both sized to the same scale look like the one below.

Is this a real helicopter or again the mock up only?
