Well in image is Y-8A specific custom version made to transport S-70, it modify cargo area and some structure, also S-70 need remove rotor mask and rod first. if not wrong only 2 unit Y-8A have built in 1986 to transport PLAN Army S-70. and other Y8-Y9 version is not capable. i believe...

not all replenishment ship built by GSI, some built by HDZH too. In HDZH shipyard。

Shanghai HDZH shipyard is china traditional shipyard to construction large china Navy ship. like type 071 LPD， replenishment ship all construction by HDZH shipyard.

very low profile project, not many news reported... i believe Z-20 in Low Rate Initial Production LRIP to make some unit for Army aviation try out and getting feedback。

This unlikely, 1) Z-20 can't carry by Y8 or Y9 due to Y8 or Y9 center of cargo area have extra super-structure for wings make space smaller so Z-20 can't slot in. however Y-20 is no issue carry Z-20. 2) China have S-70 so they have "sample" to make Z-20 and no mistake to re-engineering it. 3)...

Comac also target C919 for Export market.

Anyway COMAC need get EASA and FAA certification for C919 before can sell to majority of oversea country. this is hard part many will issue influence too, include politic， how long will take. Airbus/Boeing usually take 1-1.5 year after first flight. if C919 can get certification in 2 year will...

tier 2-3 will be 1 type, by logic unlikely destroyer equip with 2 type medium SAM missile. currently using HQ16, and If not wrong DK10 and FM3000 is failed tender no select by PLAN, of couse still can sell/export. be i believe new quad-pack missile anyway will be come out to meet PLAN requirement

base on diameter agree too, they need make new more slimier version of PL12.

what is means it can improvement from missile itself, like improve missile engine, solid-fuel，etc. PL12 have 203mm diameter vs AIM120 have 180mm diameter, still have many room for improvement. PL12 i read many place just list as medium AA missile with range about 70-80km. new improvement...

1)MK57 still much smaller than China VLS 2)MK41 "small" also enough to quadpack 4-1 ESSM missile, future CAMM. 3)That Small VLS is in 4500 tons warship.

MK41 not small, 25 in (635mm) just very ideal size balance missile and space. well mk41 size is there advantage, in other word china VLS too big, it due to china missile technologies limitation can't make small missile yet, so china have to come out bigger VLS. bigger VLS means need bigger ship...

For Arleigh Burke-class 9K ++ tons size ship add 10 tons to structure is nothing, is no issue for that. main issue is Arleigh Burke-class is power system and internal space no enough for entire new AMDR system. they need change entire power system, colling system, control system design to...

i think PL12 is medium AA missile, maybe future will have ER version, not sure other member。

Basically internal bay can fit 6 medium range Air-To-Air missile or 4 long range Air-To-Air missile.

Not big deal or serious on it, In china media and forum member always ridiculed or look down other navy, specially have issue like KORN, Japan or India even Europe warship , and praise there warship capability. that is normal you can see in china forum.

possible reach 24 unit in final？ hear will be have new version 052E with IEP ?
