Chinese Navy (PLAN) News & Discussions

Huh?........type 057?.........please could you explain in more detail...................where did you read or here this?

Can members here when posting, be a bit more explicit with there posts..........many posts made here are a big meaningless.

Thanks!

According to PLAN's rule, if the ship do not change much, then they will use the same model number, and if not, use a new model number. There are many proposals for type 054B on the net, however, if some of them become true, it should be called type 057 because it is so different from type 054A.

I don't know the exact design, but from public information, I think the basis of the design from type 054A to type 057 should be using QC-185 instead of diesel engine.

Pictures obfuscated the original picture dare not openly.
 
4th generation sub under construction,according to Tan Zuojun,vice-governor of Liaoning Province where the sub is being built for lanuch in H1 2014。

Prior to being appointed to the current post,Mr. Tan was head of CSSC,having climbed multiple rungs of the ladder known as China's shipbuilding industry。

So this sub is the TYpe 096, then.
 
I thought China was making an EMALS type supercarrier, but the image from panyimao shows that the carrier will use STOBAR.

for a country with no prior experience in carrier operations to go straight to nuke and EMALS is improbable. Took the USN 40 years (since building of kittyhawk) to replace all its conventional carriers, and that's after 30 years of carrier operation (including combat operations) and with a working reactor model even before the building of kittyhawk.
IMHO, would be crazy if China has operational EMALS by 2050.

It is happening , China will be a carrier with EMAL but it on the angle deck only. Look at China , a country with no prone experience on stealth plane , make a 5th gen stealth fighter jet. Skip the US prone experience of making SR-71 and F-117 night hawk.

China could likely skip the steam catapult, since it has nothing to do with the EMALS technologically.

The Type 002 will most likely use the EMALS even it is not nuclear powered.
 
According to your sources, has the Type 095 been built? There's a rumor that it will enter construction phase this year or early next year.

You mean your first generation stealth fighter. If its stealthy.
 
You mean that F-117 was stealthy? :lol:

Damn, someone forgot to tell the Yank military that it might be stealthy in Yankee land but it ain't stealth in Serbia kid.

Yes......and also........

Military radars may not be able to pick up stealth planes.....BUT, the British found out that mobile telephone masts used for mobile phone networks could easily detect stealth planes! :omghaha:

it quite possible to build early warning system to detect that stealth planes may possibly be heading your way, but to target them will a missile or some other weapon is far more didfficult
