China economy boost the Navy, 6th 052C DDG finished next 055

[ChineseTiger1986]

Sure futuristic weapons, but without even a name. So I called "less realistic"
while rail gun was final tested, LRASM too.

DDG 1000 is something we could touchable.

Type 055 still in paper, in Jule Verner novel, there's more advanced ships than in real at the time.

What is real : 052D. It's funny to say both 052D or 055 are advanced, while 055 never built, and 052D planned to be replaced right after 1st ship was built. That means 052D imperfect.

Advanced, backbone ships would last for at least 2 decades.

Tested, but far from being ready.

China has also tested its own laser and railgun, but you won't use that when you don't have the proper energy supply for these toys.

yes railgun was 1st test 1 century ago. DDG-1000 would be armed next 2-3 years. That's the time of railgun mounted.

The best is to see pics, in Chinese "眼见为实" / Truth in our eyes.


China was developing new Phased Array Radar for PLAN ships

Please post pictures off model off Type 55

You will see the outcome soon.

But for now, DDG 1000 still has two traditional 155mm guns, same for DDG 1001.

That's still imaginery. There's not realistic.
As US has replacement design for Ohio class, after 2030.

What China could do, Type 052D still backward, compare to AB class; futuristic 055 still the same.

lol, if the Type 052D is not advanced, then what is Type 45 and Horizon?

The Type 052D is very advanced. However, it is not China's most advanced one, that's why only 12 ships will be built.

The Type 055 is real, since there is already a mockup on the land, which is the necessarily step for all modern warships before its construction.

Same for the US DDG, here is the land mockup for the Arleigh Burke class.

China use running changes to build their ships.
Could you tell me when China launch 055 ? so what 052D stand for ?

The construction will start by the end of 2014, maybe launch in the mid 2016.

055 will replace 052D as 052D replace 052C ... such a short lifetime for 052D design, so so advanced ships

 

[ChineseTiger1986]

No, the Type 052D will not get replaced immediately, it will serve the PLAN for 30 years, then get replaced by the future warships after 30 years.

The Type 052C/D and Type 055 will co-exist together.

Just like the CVN-77, it is the the last Nimitz class ship, but it won't get replaced by the coming CVN-78 AKA the new Gerald Ford class.

the design, not the ship

In next 10 years ... China has ( CSSC will spend years to build enough numbers of 052D & 055 DDG for PLAN )

052D DDG = China version "Arleigh Burke" class DDG
055 DDG = China version "Ticonderoga" class Cruiser

But CSSC won't stop at 052D & 055 DDG, China will continue design new powerful surface ship, it's no end.

Let American members to tell u, how the U.S spent years & money to design "Arleigh Burke" DDG from early Block I => current Block II => future Block III, ship design is NO END ! Except new "Arleigh Burke" Block III DDG, American also invest LCS and DDG-1000 ships. There's no who will replace whom, it's called "ENTERPRICE" & Technology Development, only mature tech & cheaper cost new ship will replace Navy old class and mass production in the future.

Only 12 Type 052D will be built.

 

[cnleio]

Only 12 Type 052D will be built.

U.S "Arleigh Burke" class DDG:
early Block I => current Block II => future Block III (if enough fund), both AB Block I and Block II (60x) serve in U.S.S

China 052 class DDG:
prototype 052B(only 2x) => early 052C (6x) => current 052D => future 052E (if CSSC design), 052B、052C and 052D serve in PLAN.

Above is Technology Upgrade & DDG Performance Improvement ↑

If China only build 12x 052D, it means will build more 055 DDGs or there will be improve version 052E.
