Not to be rude, and I won't bring this up again, but I'm still pretty surprised that The Diplomat apparently publishes things without editing.

Great job @Bltizo !

SDF now boasts several regular contributors to professional publications with broader audience on China defense affairs: Deino, Skywatcher/Jeffrey Lin, now Bltizo/Rick Joe. They're definitely more knowledgeable and balanced than the you-know-who that usually occupy their pages.

A minor error in the article:

"We have no indications for the total number of Type 055s the Chinese Navy may seek, but some rumors have suggested the North Sea Fleet’s 9th Destroyer Flotilla may receive the first four Type 055s, followed by the South Sea Fleet’s 1st Destroyer Flotilla."

9th Destroyer Flotilla belongs to the South Sea Fleet, 1st Destroyer Flotilla the North Sea Fleet.
