055 DDG Large Destroyer Thread

[Jeff Head]

Here's my two, from the Idaho shipyards.

Tow 1/350 scale Type 055s.

I will have them with the Liaoning, two Type 052Ds and two Type 054As.

Fitting area.

101 might be getting additional equipment, or existing equipment being repaired or being looked over. Ship has a lot of new electronics, this won't be surprising.
2nd 055 is being fitted, but she's also been on trials, so reexamining and repair of new equipment, like the electronics, are possible at this point.
DDG 154 is likely there for a minor refit, particularly with electronics. Various 052D has been returning there and the pennant numbers there keep changing. So its 154's turn. I say the ship is getting new equipment.

Well,PLAN's new warship won't change thier pennant number.As well as the old ships might change it,then the new ships could use it.And the type 052D is pretty new ships,I don't think it will change.

I am not saying that they are repainting their pennant numbers. I mean that over time, there is a destroyer there in the refitting area, and the pennant number changes from picture to picture. This means that over time, its not the same destroyer sitting there for a long time, but different destroyers are taking their turn over there, likely as some part of scheduled maintenance and minor refits.

Construction progress at Dalian... All images are high-resolution.

I am not sure if I have seen this picture before. It has high detail and the perspective points to something shot relatively close with a natural perspective.

An August update from satellite...

A high-resolution magazine scan... A similar image was shared before.

The 052D on the bottom of the Dalian shipyard image is on the pier for processing outward ships. Means its done and is just awaiting for paperwork for delivery.

What happened to the Type 055 at DL that was sitting above the dry dock after the previous launch?

Did they lift into the dry dock and when ?

Shame we missed it
