Please can members here, add some texts to the images that they post here, as its not always clear what you are trying to tell us. Also, for those posting from Chinese websites, please could we also have a English translation as well please. You no it makes sense. Thanks :-)

Does anyone know how many J10's in total China is likely to build, as of current day estimates? Thanks.

Where did you here this? If they are being built now they must be at this moment be still building the modules, coz we havn't seen any images yet of possible 055's in the hallways at JN. We know some of the 055's will be built at JN, and the other shipyard should be Dalian? But who will be the...

Well if you think about it logically, there isn't a reason to doubt the CGI cutaway drawing, as we all know what the 052D looks like externally, and from that we can work out what it should look like internally, and from what i can see everything looks to be in the right place. :-)

I believe they are Chinese (PDF members) such as @cirr and @cnleio, who are trying to get close to take photos of naval vessels for us to see here. :-)

What a load of rubbish. I've never heard of anyone who ranks an Indian warship higher in capability than an equivalent Chinese warship!

In what way?

I agree where is the Type 23?..............it may be an older design, but that can't exclude it, as they are constantly updated. Have the latest Mod 4.5" gun. Carry VLS Seawolf , Harpoon, together with helicopter armed with anti-sub and anti-ship weapons. In fact soon the Type 23's will be...

Is that really possible that Carrier 001A will be launched Spring of this year, as some are saying on other military sites, that there is still an awful lot of work to be done yet to get to this point, even though the Chinese are very efficient workers? They havn't even fitted out fully the bow...

Its one thing to learn how to build ships quicker and more efficiently, but how good is the quality of the product in India?

It looks like DDG 167 is going to turn out to be a much improved and capable Destroyer. What i want to know is how are the refits to the 'Sovs' coming along, any news or pictures?

I can see from reading your post 'mike2000', that we think alike, and both of us are dismayed at the way our politicians have handled the British Defence equipment program in recent times. The American Navy is in a bit of a mess as well, due to bad political decisions. The LCS is a total dog of...

I went on HMS Daring a few years ago at a Portsmouth Navy day. HMS Dauntless was there as well, together with a couple of Type 23 Frigates and a Type 22 Frigate. The Type 23 Frigates were very well armed for there size, but there wasn't a lot of room on them to get around. The Batch 3 Type 22...

Well, it is true, the costs of British military equipment is very high, and as a lot of our stuff gets built in small numbers the individual costs are huge. I've been on a Type 45 Destroyer, and the build quality was superb. The command centre room, with all its computer consoles was very high...

The 3rd 052D was commissioned only recently, and i would expect there to be several months gap between commissionings. but if there is a chance of getting the 4th 052D commissioned this year, then they better hurry up, as there is only a few days left to the end of the year. :-) What i was...

What about the 4th one as well. :-)

IMO the 056 Corvette, appears to be very well armed for a vessel of its size. I don't think the vessel has the depth to it inside to house a VLS system, and anyway, it would take up a lot of space, so something else would have to be given up. Remember you would also need room for the extra...

Have you got an English translation for those coloured blocks?

I think it will be quite a long time before the 052C's get updated..............i mean the last 4 have only just joined the fleet in the last 2 years. I can imagine the original 2 '170' & '171' getting a mid life upgrade with the same newer engines as per fitted to the last 4 of the class. Not...

This is all pure speculation isnt it?.................Anyway i can never ever see the US transferring a large percentage of its airforce overseas.
