Plenty of action from JNCX and good work
I am sure this shipyard will be watched for many years or decades to come
Pretty good job over the last few years

I cannot speak for those specific pictures...which I REALLY like and are very nice.
Are you sure they are from her original sea trials? Perhaps Naval Trials after commissioning.
The original sea trials of 172 were covered here with a lot of pictures. (Pages 10, 12, 15, and 21 on this thread have some nice pics...there are others) . But they were well over a year ago. She was commissioned in March 2014.

well, the one below looked familiar to me ... I checked my Facebook profile and indeed I put it there on January 21
the only way I could get it is from here, but no problem, great pictures!

I don't think these have been posted -
Type 052D going through sea trials:
I am wondering what they were doing to get that kind of "wave wash" - were they turning aggressively (it doesn't look to be so)? Or were they "gunning it" (full steam ahead) or was it just the rough sea condition??
Look at the shape of the wave along the length of the ship. She is going fast.
It looks more like what we call in the dutch navy. DSI. Dek spoel installatie. A.k.a Deck spooling installation against cbrnd (cleaning deck from hazards).
Every deck has water...
