An old R&D doc (dated back to february 1994 from 724th institute) discussing Ship-based Multifunction PAR and MMIC T/R Modules. The researchers advocate the choice of S-band, saying one face with 3000 T/R modules (average power of 10W for each one) could detect a target with a RCS of 0.008m² 147km away. They also advise initiating study and the development of solid state and GaAs T/R modules.

This is the 14th Institutes genesis in the development of the H/LJG-346 (052C radar).

imho this pic is a bit tricky.....most likely photoshopped...

1 cant tell the type of the sub on the left but quite sure its not a 039A....maybe 039B (also called 041 yuan by some)....

2 the sub on the right has some weird signs....eg the part it connects sea water seems to be way to flat (like a direct cut from some other pic)....no waves and white color water and what so ever like the sub on the left which is surely real.......

3 the left side of the bottom part of the tunnel has a square shape wedge thing which should be a hallmark of photoshop work.....

4 i reckon the only real part is sea water+039B on the left.....the mountain and 091 should be pasted from other pics.....

5 my logic is if site like this is exposed publicly our national security is in danger.....
It is a 039A. There are no Yuan's in the SSF who operate these tunnel sub bases

There is no wake because the sub isnt moving.. Look again, its docked. Why would two subs be trying to enter the same tunnel at once?

And believe me, the Americans probably knew about Hainan's sub tunnels way before they were built...

Or that maybe another gift for our Comrade Pinkov to put on his magazine.

Detailed shots of the cold launch VLS on the Type 052C
There are many speculation that PLAN is about to complete this stage of "Quick march w/ small steps" (小步快跑). Yet, I had NOT been able to see the standardization of equipments that people kept talking. For example,
- the replacement of HHQ-16 of 054A on 054, 052, 051B (retiring HHQ-7)
- with the 052D in service, the new VLS tube to replace 052C ones

Guess there are only two explanation: i) PLAN still be cautious for new equipment even those already in mass production, like HHQ16. Or, PLAN had been saving on every weaponary, i.e. NO waste

My own speculations.

What is there to be cautious with HHQ-16? It is one of the most tested systems in existence. It is the Buk missile. China doesn't want to be reliant on more Russian weapons so they wait for their own.

A seaplane unit of Harbin SH5's conducted investigation and rescue training in a target sea area, in a bid to temper its rapid reaction and long range sea rescue capability in distant waters and adverse weather conditions.










Notice its magnetic anomaly detector for ASW work and detection of submarines in distress during rescue operations...
