055 Large Destroyer Thread II

[Cloud_Nine_]

No matter how many times I see 'em, I still can't help it. Dude that's some thicc ass array under the bridge wing...

Are the 055 DDG moored at the bottom left pier and the other 055 DDG inside the smaller drydock at top center belonged to the 1st batch and the 1st unit of 2nd batch from Dalian? I.e. one of them is fitting out and the other is conducting maintenance?

Otherwise, those two 055 DDGs would be new 2nd batch units that literally popped out of nowhere, and I find this kinda unlikely...

Guancha bros are confirming (or at least soft confirming) that that is ship #16.

Yankee: (while talking about ships in that satellite photo) We see here ship #10... ship #14... And a ship whose hull is 70% done, that is ship #16

Shilao: Should be ship #16

It's at the 54 minutes mark in the latest paid episode.

Possibly last of its kind?

If that's indeed true, then I'd gladly take the L.

Likely no... Maybe we'll see improved variants of the current 055 DDGS, though not so much of a completely new class in the 15th 5YP.
