So now all the active ship lines are exhausted completely.
052d, 055, 054a, 056a...
Wonder what'll happen now if not more ships of the same line.

For me Type 55 is a CG or a Super Destroyer.

Thats how it is supposed to be.
055 cruiser - 12000 tons
052d destroyer - 8000 tons
054a frigate - 4000 tons
056a corvette - 1500 tons

No more corvettes are required.
However frigates will still be built. Next iteration will be about 6000 tons.

Nowadays destroyers are much larger then WWII Cruisers.

INS Visakhapatnam is larger than most light cruisers of WWII, and it's a DESTROYER.

USS Zumwalt is larger than most heavy cruisers in WWII, and larger than some of the WWII Battlecruiser, and it's also a DESTROYER.

So type 055 is also a type of destroyer. :rofl:

the 3rd Type055 DDG which is also the first manufactured by Dalian shipyard has also arrived in the South Sea Fleet port as one of the escorts of CV-17/Shandong CVBG. ...the Pennant No hasn't been painted yet coz the South Sea Fleet has such a tradition to paint the number at the vessel's home port, not in the shipyard....
the date for commission ceremony might be very close...errrr. on Dec 26th?

These are all third rate copied and reverse engineered naval vessels. With totally inexperienced command structure and crew, these vessels have never fought a battle except rammed North Vietnamese tiny boats. Whether these stay intact or fall apart under battle conditions is yet to be seen. This they will know when they fight a battle. Until then these are paper tigers. Hence these numbers are intimidating but totally unworthy.

How credible is the news about the extra 8 x 055 cruisers?
Also, another batch of 20 x 054a?

Intimidation is half the battle.

Obviously none of us are capable enough to judge the operational characteristics or efficiency/reliability of the aforementioned ships, but it does show a resolve to accelerate spending resources on the navy and also match it up with equally accelerated production times.

lol, the painting job is done ...it seems that her Pennant Number is '105' not the '103' as predicted.
