Long overdue. It's possible another may commission this year, maybe end of year.

 

[Team Blue]

Seriously. Haven't seen a new one in forever. Get to lord this over some coworkers who thought the PRC shipbuilding had stagnated.

And do we have any news about 103 & 104?

 

[Team Blue]

In their dreams!

Right? You've seen some of my other stuff. I think some of them feel a need to compensate in front of the Chinese guy.

Also update: I lorded it and it was glorious.

China's second 10,000 ton-class destroyer enters naval service
CGTN (2021-03-08)

A Type 055 large destroyer named after Lhasa, the capital of Southwest China's Tibet Autonomous Region, recently made its first public appearance at a naval base in Qingdao, East China's Shandong Province. This makes the Lhasa the second Type 055 destroyer that has entered service with the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy.

I am indeed awaiting some large surface asset, really large, for Xinjiang in commensurate with its landmass, about one sixth of the entire China, thus must be carrier-level for Xinjiang itself, and some key cities in the vast province such as Kashgar (Kashi), Karamay, Turpan, Hami, and etc. for other naval surface assets. I recall its capital city, Urumqi, has been adopted.

In term of landmass, at 1.665 million square kilometers Xinjiang is as large as:

• over 3x mainland France
• over 4.4x Japan
• over 5.5x Italy
• over 6.2x New Zealand
• over 7.9x Britain

Thus this province and its key cities deserve naming for good & large Chinese naval assets!!!

And do we have any news about 103 & 104?

103 and 104 were launched a few months after 102. They should be commissioned later this year.

Seriously, the living accommodation design looks very outdated but still decent comfort.
