The return of the Chinese navy to the local gas turbine QC70, installed today on Type 726A hovercraft, is very positive - "The overall performance is better than the imported product".
From Henri K blog that confirm what we have been saying all along that the delay is due to unsatisfactory performance of Ukrainian GT

Lets see a loaded LCAC entering and leaving a well deck then talk

Until then Type 726 is a white elephant
This is nothing but a matter of time. What I would actually like to see is 2 columns of HMMWVs loaded simultaneously. Scratch that. What I would actually like to see is a new 726B variant that has the same carrying capacity as the LCAC.

Whats the actual power rating for the QC70? Isn't it supposed to be 7MW? Are they referring to the UGT6000 if its imported? It would have to perform better than the 7.35MW rating for the UGT6000.

That's solely dependent on the ability to up-rate the QC-70.
