Painting of the flightdeck has begun ...
Almost finished. Typical Chinese speed.
Next, type 002!
... I think DL will also start to focus on the Type 002 after the Type 001A starting the sea trial in the next year.
So about the expected time when the dry-dock is empty again after both 005 DDGs were launched !?
Some rumors suggest that the dry dock of the Type 001A will be later used to build the Type 075, while DL's Type 002 will be built in somewhere else, not sure if it is the one that currently builds the Type 055.
There are many dry-docks.So about the expected time when the dry-dock is empty again after both 005 DDGs were launched !?
There is also rumor says that the first type 002 will not be built in Jiangnan, Shanghai.
Instead, the first 002 will be built in Dalian.
I don't know what to believe now.
There are many dry-docks.
The place where the 055s being built is not a dry dock, it is a slip-way yard connected to the floating platform in the "launching pool". IMO, due to the size of 002, the "launching pool" might be a little small.
There is a dry dock No. 4 next to the slip-way yard which was built with aircraft carrier in mind during construction of the JNCX complex.
This is a very old photo showing the dry dock. So far no navy ships have been built in this dry dock yet. 002 is expected to be the first one.
