It looks like the Dalian shipyard in which 2 Type 055 DDGs are being assembled is in the process of being divided into two halves

thereby allowing for the concurrent construction of 4 055s?

With 4 Type 055 cruiser build in ago. This is the first truely mass productions heavy weight warship PLAN desire. I bet at least 18 will be build or even 24 of them.

The production of Type052D will stopped at 13.

I don't think so. Type 052D destroyer is just like Type 052C destroyed which is build in small quantity. Their building pace is slow.

Type055 is the warship that excel USN AB destroyed in everything including the upgrade one.

Equip this in large number to make PLAN a formidable navy make sense.
Seeing 4 Type055 build in a single go shows how confident and satisfy for this warship. I am very sure the first 055 cruiser will get commission very fast. So that it will act as foreleader to go for sea trial and to prove all system combining as one working perfectly. Maybe 2018 April the first will commission.
