How it can fight with:

Alreigh Burke

7,000ton DDG, if compared with American "Burke-II/III" class it's a small Aegis DDG (half of military power). "Burke-II/III" can carry 100+ SM-2/3 missiles and many ESSM but 052D just max.64x missiles. A distinct advantage for 052D i think low price but China still can't afford many 052C/D as the same as US Navy's 60x "Burke-II" DDGs.

How 052D fight with Alreigh Burke ?
For single ship performance i think 052D still inferior to "Burke-II/III". Engine system, numbers of VLS unit and missiles less than "Burke-II/III". 052D&#8216;s 2x QC-280 gas turbines + 2x diesel engines < "Burke-II"'s 4x LM2500-30 gas turbines, China lack powerful and reliable "heart"(like LM2500-30) it limites DDG's size.

Pakistan should try to midify its missile to be used against Marine Targets as well.

This looks like and older one, since the destroyer will be using Type 730.

The Type 052D is clearly inferior to the Flight III model which has 96 MK-57 VLS units and 4 x AN/SPY-3 AESA radars.

But it is not necessarily inferior to the current Flight IIA model which has 96 old MK-41 VLS units and 4 x AN/SPY-1D PESA radars.

Overall, the Type 052D is about 2/3 firepower of the Flight III model, and you have to remember that the lead ship of the Flight III model won't ready until 2023.

Whatever comes after the rumored Type 055 will be superior to the Flight III model... Do you agree?

When do you think the Type 055 itself will go into service btw? Before 2020?

The Type 055 will basically use the same level of technology as the Flight III model, but it will be a bit larger, thus it is superior.
