3 x Type 052D launched in 2018

16 launches in 76 months

Rate is 1 in 4.75 months or average 2.5 per year
Launch average will increase once the ships in the staggered phase launch quickly.. The keel laying average has been 3.25/ year. 26 in 8 years.. I have no reason to believe launch rate would be too different from this..

Now you know why PLA officers like mass weddings.

I am thinking April 23, we may see mass commissioning.

For those who don't know what April 23 means, that is the PLA Navy birthday.

Among the ships, maybe "Nanchang" and "Shandong."
