Type 055 DDG News & Discussions

[Pakistani Fighter]

Oh come on ... yes I know following some here Pakistan should introduce J-16 and J-20, they should purchase H-6K, the Liaoning once the 003 carrier is operational ans surely also the 055. But who should pay for all these wet-dreams??

Therefore Pakistan should stay realistic ...

If we are thinking of buying warships or Mig 35s from russia then we shud avoid them and look for this ship

It's possible in future, but take time.

I think 052D is very suitable for PN.
052D is powerful, it's radar and electronics capability is best among the world navy(not include the monster 101 NanChang of PLAN), even better than AB IIA of US navy.
It's weapon system is also the best, same type of VLS and CIWS and RAM and GUN with 055, just less in ammunition capacity, considering tonnage difference of 7K and 12K,
And it's quality guaranteed and very stable and reliable, dozens of them have been built by Chinese shipyard.
Finally, it's more affordable, price is only 60% of 055.
