Wait a minute, Forbin, what is that boat in the foreground? That too looks interesting.

Looks similar to one of those boats used for dragon boat racing.

This ship continue to evolve and it's great seeing it in action

Okay guys, let's try and do here for SD what we are also doing for the Type 054A frigates. That is maintaining an accurate list of ship builds and info.

Here's a pic of the latest dayta I have. I know there are holes in it, but I believe we can produce an accurate, up to date list.

With the enthusiasts that we have here, is it worth making informational stickies that basically provides a summary of platform stats; the attached list of build dates, commission dates, etc; and some nice pics like a pic of every pennant? We could select samples from all the pics folks have posted in our threads? Then that sticky gets locked down and placed at the top of pages as conversations takes places on threads like this one.

It would be a bit like reviving the old Sinodefence page if you will. This forum has been referenced before as a source of info and I think that's really cool. Just thinking out loud.
