055 wont be as futuristic as DDG1000, and it wont be equipped with laser gun nor nuclear propulsion```it is going to use all mature design, techs and systems (90% are known to the public or used on current PLAN warships)

its VSL modular has neither 96 nor more than 128

there might be one thing that can be interesting, that is it will feature X and S band AESA radars on it

According to the relative of a PLA naval engineer, the 055 will have 128 cells according to last year status of the design.

The 130mm main gun will have rocket assisted precision ammunition similar to the army's 155mm self-propelled guns, with estimated range of 100km. It is said able to attack 40 targets in 10 minutes time.

It is false, since those anti-China news just keep coming up with those kind of unproven allegations and to downgrade China's innovation capability.

Innovation comes once you have caught up.

They are just butt-hurt that China will catch up with them soon.

if 054B's powerplant goes fully electric and functions well, any chance that 055 uses it as well? that would be better for blue water CVBG.

If it does, then theoritically no problem of using, at least start testing, laser and electromagnetic guns on 055B?

Yup and you grow a d*ck out from your mouth for that anus you want.

Most ppl in Chinese military forums believe it will be the formal design for 055 DDG, 80% truth. It looks like a bigger size 052D DDG, with 96~128x VLS, X and S band AESA radars, 2x helo hangars.

I don't like the shipbody design, it will as ugly as Britain Type45 DDG, has a BIG HEAD ( X band AESA radar on the head).

The integrated mast isn't as exaggerated as the Type 45.

The raised AESA on the rear make it looks like Flight IIA Arleigh Burke...
