Type 075 Landing Helicopter Dock (LHD) News & Discussions

Good, repair should not take long then. They'll be commissioned on schedule

China needs amphibious assault ship before US becomes aggressive after Covid19 ending, might pick on country such as Iran to rob out of desperation. Amphibious assault ship would allow China to deploy its army fast to hold ground. Expect US to fuel up tension over South China Sea to disrupt Asia's economy. Type 075 will be useful over Spratlys island and to show US that Guam is not safe from China amphibious assault.

The American ones I've seen near Norfolk are gigantic, they are aircraft carriers in all but name.
