I mean wouldn't it be the biggest ever if two of Type 055 were dual launched now?

Another mile stone achieved by the PLAN. The launching of not just one, but 2 10,000 ton destroyers at once is a feat few nations can achieve.

I am not aware any nations has achieved the feat of launching 2x 10,000 large destroyers at the same time

I don't believe that China is pursuing the record .. it is just a convenience that top brass only need to attend one for 2 big ships ... in a way for cost saving as well

More high-resolution photos of the dual launch. These are some of the best angles yet and really show off the ships as they sit in the water.

It would have been better if they would have launched it with fully fitted top mast.
Whenever I see the pics of this 2 destroyers, the feeling arises that it's missing something.

. It's customary to launch warships without many of the sensors and other subsystems installed: that's what the fitting-out period is for.

better to who? you?
It doesn't really matter ...... in fact all the sensors would be empty at this stage anyway

More high-resolution photos are trickling in. The second photo shows a 055 and a 052D in tandem, giving a good view of their size difference.
