That last ships looks like some sort of container ship that has been modified with some sort of platfoirm.. looks weird. Could be used to transport all these nice new FAC's the PLAN has:china:
...I've seen lots of diffrent numbers on them... Interesting!
Did a typhoon hit that ship that appears to be wrecked??

The aft deck can handle two 2 Zhi-9A helicos, and it spans two-thirds of ship's length which allows simultaneous operations of multiple helicopters. This facilitates training for shipboard helicopter operations, as well as amphibious assult training.
The aft deck can also house containers for equipment required for various training missions, allowing rapid reconfiguration. The overall layout is a lot like the Arapaho concept tested by the Royal Navy on RFA Reliant in the 1980s.
It displaces 10,000t and is one of the largerships in the PLAN. So, it kind of provides a training platform for large ship handling and flight deck operations.
A lot of people believe that the Shichang is the prelude to the construction of a helicopter carrier or amphibious assult vessel, and provides a basis for perfecting fixed-wing aircraft carrier operational concepts.
I believe the 82 is the SHICHANG, a multi-role support and training vessel ship for the PLAN, that can be used as an aviation training ship used for helo training.bd popeye said:

At first I would have said it's the new NZ multipurpose auxilliary ship...but the backround looks rather chinese and also this vessel seems to be bigger...I try to dig something out...

Re: PLAN Pictures Thread 4
Wow! There look to be four more of them right there. I believe there could be upwards of several dozen of these already built or in the process of being built. How many will the PLAN create? What do the folks on SDF think?ying1978 said:

from what ying posted
Quoted from "漏斗子"
22艇装备五个大队，北海一、东海、南海各二，一个大队八艘，共计四十艘。
那五个大队，全海军仅有的两个导弹艇大队，跑不了的，一个在福建，一个在川岛，基本尘埃落定。
东海第二家，应该是温州的护大。
南海第二家，倾向是在海南，不会是猎潜艇大队或者导护艇大队换装，那很可能新组建。
北海放在哪儿，现在频频出现在青岛，给快一支？旅顺也可能吧
It's basically saying 40 in total in 5 fleet. Each will have 8 type 22. Actually, if it really is by the spoiler dude (claims in that little text), then it might have some truth. Not sure if he is saying there are already that many or there will eventually be that many.
Edit:
According to Xinhui on CDF, there are 13 type 22 under construction right now.
6 in Shanghai, 2 in Qingdao, 2 in Guangzhou and 3 in Guangxi.
