Those photo are for domestic consumption. Chinese ordinary folks know nuts about electric powered scrapers.The NBC (nuclear biological and chemical) cleaning tools needs improvement. Iron bucket and simple scrupper is simply taking up too much time to finish the job.
Pneumatic or electricity powered scruppers and sprayers should not cost much. Should take a look at modern car wash equipment !
PLA army is better equiped than PLAN.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arleigh_Burke-class_destroyerIn 1988, the total cost of the first AB ship was put at US$1.1 billion, the other US$778 million being for the ship's weapons systems. [i.e. $1.878 billion] The U.S. Navy began a modernization program for the Arleigh Burke class. The modernization program is designed to provide a comprehensive mid-life upgrade to ensure that the class remains effective. Reduced manning, increased mission effectiveness, and a reduced total cost including construction, maintenance, and operation are the goals of the modernization program. Shipbuilding contracts for DDG-113 to DDG-115 were awarded in mid-2011 for US$679.6m–$783.6m; these do not include government-furnished equipment such as weapons and sensors which will take the average cost of the FY2011/12 ships to US$1,842.7m per vessel.
