interesting,the HD 4th 054a at outside of the yard drydock but not completed, why this time is diferent? why the mast finished paint first?
maybe the drydock is full now?
Saw this in Jane's: "The construction of hull 6 at Hudong Shipyard was briefly delayed by the collapse of a crane in 2008". Could be that they are just now catching up from the backlog?
well, China already make 8 of those 054A. now is time to stop that move on to something else. You don't want to keep making stuffs that you already know, instead should start to make something new.
like a new SSGN, new destroyer, anti-sub copters, a new strategic bomber, of course carrier.
China is not going to war, it doesn't need that many 054A, insead it should expand its design and manufacturing capability in terms of making new stuffs.
