Yes。You are right。

Escorted by 2 DDGs and 2 FFGs, CV16 “LiaoNing” left her home base in QingDao this morning and is now sailing for the South China Sea。

Work soon to start on 2 40000-tonne plus LHDs。

What the hell.

I thought the 40,000 ton LHD were already under construction.

When will they be launched?

A joint project of China, Russia and Belarus
China: Material (composite) supply
Russia: Building the boat
Belarus: Computer and control system

海人无人艇项目由上海合作组织企业家俱乐部提供支持，参与研发的三方分别是中国的“高分子”公司(Sino Polymer，负责提供新型复合材料)、俄罗斯的“混合船舶制造公司”(负责建造艇体)以及白俄罗斯的“Kvand”智能系统公司(负责程序保障和自控系统)

Specifications:
Length: 16 meters ( model for testing: 6+ meters)
Width: 1.8 meters
Speed: 55 knots (test model)
Endurance: Full size boat - several weeks; test model - 5 days

Pix of testing model below:

Surprised that Belarus will be making the computer and control system, instead of China.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure China and Russia and any clients will use it, since Belarus doesn't have a navy.

I think the vital section of this project is the stealth material that China is providing. Building and the operating system are of secondary importance. What matters is the stealthy material (composite).

The Belarusians are very good coders. Russians are also very very strong programmers

If the fact most of my professors in university that teaches 4th year courses are former soviets is any indication then quote for truth.

For Belarus' programming competence:


Belarusian and other ex-soviet programmers take on India in $48 billion market

Innovation offshoring
EU companies looking for IT innovation often setup collaboration with universities in countries such as Belarus and Ukraine, which have a high percentage of ICT graduates and overall a very skilled IT labor.

Offshoring - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There are collegiate programming competitions or open coding competitions like code jam, code forces etc to prove that

13 Dec 2013, another type 054A frigate, No.574 Sanya, the 16th 054A, enter service at Sanya city of South Sea flee.

Type 056 fire YJ-83 anti-ship missile

Right。

Far far better than Indians。

Gun-boat diplomacy？

 

[bolo]

Right。

Indian programmers are overrated. Our company hired these guys to perform integration hoping to save cost but ended also up hiring local programmers because they couldn't deliver what was promised. Sounds like it's part of their culture. Talk, boast, promise but unable to deliver.

South Sea Fleet has 8 054As now,and maybe this is the last 054A of South Sea Fleet
