Excellent news, what's the difference between 055 and 055A?

The Type 055A is the improved model of the Type 055.

Maybe it can have more mature technology, also with larger tonnage such as 15000 tons full load and 128 VLS cells?

At least 8 to 10 billion USD per

I think you mean 0.8 to 1 billion USD per unit?

3.5 bilion Yuan is only for the ship itself, you should including the weapon system/traning/missiles.

Excuse me typo, yeh, 0.8 billions USD at least including missiles and training.

Yup. That price is for pla. If they sell it, there will be markup.

What about License production....

I think Pakistan has the ability to produce warships (Pakistan can produce sophisticated jet fighters for example) but it's a matter of priorities. License production requires setting up the infrastructure and training the workers needed to successfully do everything from installing the electronics down to proper weld techniques.

Given Pakistan's security environment and threats, would that be a good use of Pakistan's budget? Or would money be better spent in further upgrading the PAF - a branch that's more likely to be utilized and tested in the case of hostilities with a certain neighbor? I don't know but that's surely something that Pakistani leaders are/have considered.

They are planning to build two more carriers by 2020.

There is one already starting the construction.

These buildings are only the mockups to test the electromagnetic environment.

It's not in JN shipyard, a 1:1 055 mockup for building preparation. If u read whole this thread, the building built one year ago. The 1st 055 DDG shipbody will out in 2015, 2014.12 start building in JN shipyard, here we didn't have shipyard pic yet.

Yes, China should have more big tonnage warship to fulfil "blue ocean" task.

Too bad that Zhengzhou was only naming after a Type 052C, not even a Type 052D.

Many cities will be very lucky to name after the mighty Type 055/055A.
