Waiting for new engines, perhaps

Not sure if this is the lead ship from an earlier sea trial or a different unit...

Guys ... either you stay on topic - which is the Type 055 DDG - or I clean that thread and deleted all this off-topic discussions on rail-guns, naval gun comparisons and eventual F-35 operations off any Japanese carrier or not.

You all take this as a warning and I promise: the next who posts a reports from Minnie Chan as proof for any stupid or strange idea will get a vacation of two weeks.

Officers and soldiers held a ceremony for veterans under the destroyer.
Likely the PLAN North-sea fleet has received the first 055 destroyer, which will be in service early next year.

What do you mean they've received the first 055 destroyer? Do you mean it has been commissioned? Or do you mean it will be commissioned early next year?
