2 new pictures of D#03.

Note the missile launcher on the right ship.... FL3000N

FL-3000N is a reference for exportation of the whole system (Launcher + Missiles). The internal use one called HHQ-10 (?? Missile part only).

The official reference of the launcher is called 710.SJ01-X (with X = number of tube), so far we saw 4 different version - 8 tubes (Type 056), 15 tubes, 18 tubes (Type 001 16 Liaoning) and 24 tubes (Type 052D).

Here the launcher installed on Type 056, it's called 710.SJ01-8

no no, for all the infos we can gather from internet, we wont be seeing 055 until 2016 the earliest !

055 is a true monster, some of their sub systems are not mature yet, besides 12 052Ds were ordered, it will take two ship yards at least 2 years to finish all of them

Part of the specification of the VLS of Type 052D, according to the official chinese military standard GJB-5860-2006.

For example we learnt from this document that this VLS has at least 3 different kinds of standard launch modules - 9000mm of long, 7000mm and 3300mm. Each "structure" of VLS can hold 8 vertical launcher/seperator (we can see that in the front of Type 052D there are 4 "structures", and at the stern as well), and each vertical launcher can hold up to 4 missiles.

For those who are interested on this new universel VLS system, you can also have a look on an another official military standard GJB-1414A-2005.

I'm still waiting for the last update of Google Map, but the satellite picture on March 3rd shown 2 Type 052D destroyers and 3 Type 052C destroyers. We know that things have changed since then...

Last year in November some pictures have been taken by a spotter from a plane flying over the Jianan shipyard, where we can see a Type 052C and a Type 052D side-by-side -
