why 075 need so much power?
I guest early is middle of Oct. end Oct look more possible.I must admit, China's shipbuilding capabilities have been already impressive and astonishing during the last years, but the speed of building for the first Type 075 LHD surprises me even more.
Not sure, but could launch be possible even before 1st October?
