Type 052D DDG News & Discussions

[BDforever]

BD doesn't need ships as large as 052D。

Heavily armed corvettes and FFGs are enough to defend BD‘s maritime rights。

Better save the money for other endeavours，such as infrastructure。

i want 055 now

I think the Type 052D is more suitable for Pakistan, while the Type 054A is more suitable for Bangladesh.

Even the 052D's role as sea-borne BMD platform and LACM launching platform would be "wasted" if it is inducted into service by BN, since it would be much more economic/effective if BD purchases ground-based HQ-9A SAM and ground-based DH-10 LACM instead to fulfill the same functionality if BD requires them.

I still believe the 054A as the most suitable vessel for the BN in the capacity as an AAW/ASuW Flagship.Think about how many 054A BN could obtain for the price of one Type 052D or a Type 055!

The length of the VLS is no longer a mystery now.

I think the Type 052D is more suitable for Pakistan, while the Type 054A is more suitable for Bangladesh.

I think both examples as totally unrealistic (i.e. well outside the applicable nations means and needs)

JN shipyard, 2x 052C(N.o151 & N.o153) and 2x 052D (3rd, 4th 052D) ready soon
