052C/052D Class Destroyers

Taiyuan now puts on a light show.

See the ship in YouTube video.

Is this part of the OFC-3 IR system? Through the years it changed of places numerous times

Also, this is IFF right

The fleet review has been cancelled. On the other hand the Japanese are great photographers, the 052D went to Japan for the photo shoot opportunity.

It's finally sunny in Sasebo. All images are high-resolution.

Yes and yes.

The OE and IR system has three parts though. There are two in each side, you are seeing it in one side, and the middle one is on the picture previous to this one if you scroll back the page. The middle or main part is set between the Type 344 gun radar and a small rotating navigation radar with a linear or bar array. Like the Type 344 gun radar, the OFC is turned backward for some reason during the photo shot.



Does it look to me they are having some party at the hanger deck?

Bye bye Sasebo. All images are high-resolution.
