There are currently what? 14 Type 052Ds in the water?
Then add all of those TYpe 054As and you have hands down the 2nd most powerful surface navy in the world that has come into being in the last ten years.

We shall see subs and anti sub planes coming up.

But that navy still requires at least ten years to catch up on operations and training. The surface ships aren't everything. Just some hardware.

With Three more building right now I believe.

There are five Type 055s building.

There are 6 Type 052Cs.

Add to that the four Sovs, the Two Type 052Bs, and then the two Type 051Cs and you currently have 36 DDGs that either are already in the water, or are building (29 in the water and 7 building).

That is an AMAZING achievement in a relatively short time.

Then add all of those TYpe 054As and you have hands down the 2nd most powerful surface navy in the world that has come into being in the last ten years.

i think there are 13 052Ds in the water, with at least one under construction at JNCX that we can see.

fairly impressive, that of all the domestically produced ships on the list starting with 052B, the first of which was launched in 2002.

From 2002 to 2017, that is 15 years, and counting off all the destroyers and frigates that they produced or are working on, it is fairly impressive.

The 3rd 055 unit is seen in this recent satellite photo.

Just based on a rough measurement I would say the L:B ratio is at least 8.9:1, maybe even 9:1 or more.

GIven where they came from with the Type 051s and the older Figates...it is VERY impressive to have gotten to where they are today in this time frame...and adding carrier aviation to it at the same time. Very impressive indeed.

From Pop 3 a souce enough special

The preliminary study of the Chinese Navy's Type 055 destroyer began in this century. After a thorough analysis of needs and rigorous demonstration, the preliminary review of the Chinese Navy's Type 055 destroyer was approved on December 20, 2009. After a five-year design process, Commenced construction, launched on June 28, 2017 and started sailing test in 2018 and is expected to deliver troops into the army by 2019. Other Chinese destroyer Type 051 3000 tons, FFG 054 of 4,000 tons and destroyer of type 052B, C, D and 051B, C of 6/7000 tons. Its tonnage directly The 6,000-ton class crosses over 10,000 tons and is the fourth-generation destroyer of the Chinese Navy. The Type 055 destroyer has epoch-making significance and landmark in the Chinese naval surface combat ships. 055 destroyer in the end what are the highlights and Aspect it? This article to do some superficial analysis.

First of all, in the design, the development of China's 055 DDG has broken the old system framework of China's naval warship for the first time and established a new mode different from the past. This is a tremendous advance in ideology and methodology, They have completely broken down some traditionally unreasonable frameworks from the top to the bottom, established a new methodology and guidelines, and strengthened the positioning of "taking the war as a demand, taking the military as the leading factor and taking the research and development institute as the main body". These advances started but not limited to the development of the 055 DDG. Instead, they took this opportunity to open up a brand new path for the development of the Chinese naval vessels. 055 changed the extensive design of the past, to achieve a refinement of the design. Through the use of the top-level design, layers of decomposition of the way to optimize the structure of the rationality and integration, and strengthen the integration of command and control, highlight the combat capability, to achieve full sharing of standard information and common benchmarks, equipment to achieve miniaturization, generalization, integration It is of great significance that we have standardized and extended our ideas and methods of expanding radiation into the development of other vessels.

Second, the 055 is a 10,000-ton destroyer. Generally speaking, the greater displacement of a ship means higher endurance and self-sufficiency. This means that the Type 055 can sail even without relying on external suppliesFar, self-sufficiency stronger.Similarly, the large displacement also means that the Type 055 destroyer has better airworthiness and can sail safely under higher sea conditions and enhance the combat capability of ship-borne weapons and helicopters under high sea conditions. This is of great significance for the Chinese naval march to the oceanAnd improve the combat capability of great benefit.In addition, the large displacement also means a large tank capacity, can carry more weapons and electronic equipment, making the ship more comprehensive combat capabilities, greater unit firepower density, but also improve the crew's living.

Fourthly, in the aspect of weapon systems, the Type 055 destroyer has the combat capability of air defense, anti-ship, anti-submarine, anti-torpedo and short-range anti-missile and land attack. The 055 type ship is equipped with more than 100 vertical silos that can carry more A model of missiles. 055 destroyer main weapons equipped with a common vertical launch of the HHQ-9B long-range SAM anti-ship missiles YJ18A-type missile and land attack cruise missiles CJ-10 ; also equipped with HQ- 10 missiles, single-barrel 130 mm naval gun and Ciws guns and anti-submarine weapons systems as torpedoes etc. with a high three-dimensional combat capability and level.

The development of the 055 was a landmark event of the Chinese Navy. The 055 possesses many new technologies and new equipment. Its comprehensive combat capability has also surpassed the previous Chinese Navy surface combat ships. However, the new methods and standards established in the development of the 055 will be even more significant. They will guide, change and influence the future development of Chinese naval vessels and will not improve the overall level of Chinese naval ships and their overall operational capabilities At the same time, we must also say that with the rapid development of Chinese naval military technology, the most advanced technology will always be in the future.
