PLAN Type 075 LHD discussion

I don’t think even the expansion of the Soviet Navy under Gorshkov happened as quickly. The only comparable build up I can think of in modern times is the creation of the German High Seas Fleet after 1898.

 

I would say 10-15 years not 20

Nothing really happened from 1999-2004

It’s after that time China upped the tempo

And last 5 years have been unbelievable

I followed it all

 

Agreed. Not seen in the history of the world.
At least during peacetime. US Two Ocean Navy act and subsequent expansion during the WW2 might be another good example.

 

It looks like SPQ-9B. Might have a similar functionality.



But we also have never seen the inside of the Type 364 radome in all these years too. If they put that inside a white spherical radome, then its likely the Type 364 and for the first time we have seen the inside of it. If they leave it as is or wrap it with a radome of a new design, then its a new radar.

I'm quite impressed that they are also putting the ECM units. That's usually done post launch fitting stage.

 

No time to waste, build and prepare before America strikes.

 

Great

So the rumour of 1st March 2019

And then 2 more after 6 month intervals

Next year this time 3 in the water

 

All of this while using less than a modest 2% of gdp.
