One DDG-1000 cost can build 6~7x A.B DDGs ... even U.S Navy can't afford many, they already building 74x A.B/A.B-II/A.B-IIA DDGs.I'm wondering why China still build a classic layout for o55, we should do the best of the best, something stealthy similar to DDG1000 zumwalt class destroyer or better.

LOL ... a beautiful dream, my friend !Let suppose that US is willing to sell us this DDG-1000, there is great chance that our admirals will buy it even at higher price but ask if we gonna design something similar, we're reluctant because of the cost...you see the problem the designer is facing? If we condemn ourselt with a double standard mindset that we're willing to buy expensive ship but not willing to design something similar because of the cost then we're really fck.
Of course if we don't have technology to make something similar to DDG-1000 is another story.
The Chinese method is one of evolution.......whereas in the last couple of decades the Americans have gone for a revolutionary approach for new defense projects, with varying results.
The Zumwalt is sure to be an excellent ship. but it hasn't proven itself yet...........and i'am sure countries around the world will be keeping a close eye on this vessel to see how it performs.
Basically, the staggering costs of the Americans approach to military projects, has seen some of them cancelled, and with the case of the Zumwalt, the Americans have decided to go back to building the more traditional Arleigh Burke class.
I think the Chinese decision to build the 055 Cruiser, will provide them with a warship, more than capable of taking on any of the other world's best warships.
One day China may go for a revolutionary design, but at the moment their priority is rebuilding their Navy with an ulta- modern fighting force.
LOL ... a beautiful dream, my friend !
