I cannot. Thanks.
yes I can, just seconds ago.

Try some proxies. Because you could not access sinodefense (in US) earlier, I believe your IP provider's routers are faulty.

By using a proxy in the U.S. I can access these sites. here is a free proxy server list site.

checked the GoogleEarth couple of days ago over the HuDong shipyard, and spotted this "big ship", any idea what it is, commercial or combatant?

Well, it depends. It has the lines upfront for a military vessel. At the rear...a little harder to tell. It appears too rounded aft...but that might not be the ship[. If the ship cuts off square back there, then that could possible be a helo deck.

Here is a comparison to the mockup of the Type 055 for example, with the mockup turned to the appropriate angle and scaled appropriately:

Hard to say if it is military or not...but the red outlined portion I put in there is definitely the military mockup of the Type 055.

I am intrigued by the PLAN marines choice of camo color.

Why do the PLAN marines wear the blue camo uniforms?
What is the tactical advantage in using blue over say more woodland camo?
Is this to conceal their wading in from the sea?
Once in the scrub, they stand out.

Do they anticipate more casualties in the sea?

Hey I just wanted to ask (not sure if anyone has already asked), but do we know anything about the PLAN and their use of Anti-flash equipment? Or is it generally something that the PLAN hasn't brother putting investment into at the moment?

It is believed the 095's will be named as Chu Class, the 096's the Tang Class. The missiles will be the JL-3 with a range of 15, 000 km.
