You need to use your head more rather than your foot.Here is the picture

I don't know if you're dishonest or merely ignorant here, but neither descriptor bodes well for you. I think I'm just going to go ahead and ignore this photo of a USN LCAC that is still several dozen meters away from the photographer and the well deck

I don't know where you get the dimension of 16 m for the type 71 well deck width.But judging from the photo of the ship and type 71 beam spec. It is definitely more than 16m. Even accounting for slight tapering at the well deck. So that will shot down your argument that Yuyi beam is limited to 14 m.I read the estimate it varies between 14 to 16 m

Length: 210 m (689 ft 0 in)
Beam: 28 m (91 ft 10 in)
Draft: 7 m (23 ft 0 in)
Let's use your own photo here:

type-071-yuzhao-05.jpg

The red line is 425 pixels. The orange line is 242 pixels. Can you do the math? No? No problem, I'll help you:

28*(242/425) = 15.94m. I'm feeling generous today so I will give you an extra 0.06m. Were you saying something about a foot and a mouth? :)

Using you own photo and assuming the average height of north Chinese man of 1.75m. The pilot cabin width is roughly 3.5m and so do the crew cabin.Now accounting for the cushion bulge of 1/2m even using 14 m That left out 6m loading deck width.That is based on 16m wide well of type 71
Which I highly doubt from eyeballing the type 71 photo and beam spec
Instead of using your ridiculously flawed "average" 1.75m tall Chinese male ruler, let's use something slightly more objective, shall we?

726.jpg

The red line is 965 pixels. The yellow line is 327 pixels. Here is the math: 14*(327/965) = 4.74m. Is it my coke bottle glasses that are the problem, or yours? LOL

I don't know what kind of pixel measurement that you use. I get different pixel count than you do Here is my Calc using Pixel Ruler

(200/320)X28m=17.5m lol;)

:(

Here is my calc (190/500)X14=5.32 Even using your ridiculous 14 m still get you 5.32
Now if you use 15m wide well beam you it will get 5.7m wide LCAC opening

Maybe you are using cheap tablet to do the measurement LOL

There are a couple clues in the second picture: the two anti-skid floor patterns, the three short cylinders above the rear floor by the central line. So it does look like a single row loading by design. And thinking about it, having only one orange central line itself is also a telling sign. If it was able to load side-by-side, it would need also lines on both sides to mark the boundaries.

Assuming it was type 96 Tank which what that LCAC is designed for. To transport tank from over the horizon. It also has orange horizontal line that definitely indicated the stop line for side by side parking

Sorry, but I just don't believe you at all. I will need to call total BS on this post here unless you can visually prove your claims by taking screenshots of your measurements IN PROGRAM.

Sure the central line can be seen as dividing the loading area for small vehicles side by side. But for its main purpose, that is to load PLA's current tanks and AFVs, 726 is unlikely capable of more than one row IMO.

By the way, should we use "column" instead of "row" here?

Equally BS is your assumption of 14m LCAC beam based on 16m Well deck width
We will soon know who is right wait until they used in in exercise

If that is the case, there will be 3 horizontal bar since the HMMV length is only 5 m. I only see 1
It is row because the vehicle is parked side by side

I THOUGHT SO. I just caught you 'massaging' the truth, didn't I? Don't bother denying it, you're essentially admitting to it here. Shame on you :)

The well deck of the 071 IS 16m in width and I proved it to you visually. The fact that you refuse to accept the truth is completely irrelevant to the veracity of the truth. My ratios drawn of the 726 is also visually explicit, unlike your fantasy made-up numbers. The usable vehicle deck width to total width ratio is .339 or close to it. Incidentally, that means that even if the total width of the 726 is 16m the vehicle deck width is still only 5.42m, not enough for 2 of your WZ-551, which would require 5.6m in addition to the necessary clearance in between each other and between them and the vents/doors. The ZBD-97 and ZBD-5/2000 are 2.74m width, also too wide for the 726. I can't think of any active IFV that the PLAN could reasonably carry in a side-by-side configuration. Not to mention these IFVs are around 20t or more, which means weight-wise the 726 could only carry 3 of these at a time anyway. So there is no need to wait for an exercise to know what the truth is, because it is already quite clear.

Really Check this one out It clear all the vent door, Pilot cabin door,etc The position of ramp winch is in front of everything else.Yup you are the one that is hallucinating
