Not exactly, but =GT posted something similar on CDF just now
浦江第一哨
目前已经可以确认第四座大山不久就将出现在大伙儿的面前了....
从进度看,因为已经批量建造了,所以某厂的建造速度也比第一第二条有所提高,特别是坞期,分段预舾装技术更趋成熟,通过合理的坞内工作调度,占用坞期也会进一步缩短....
加油,中国造船工业!我们需要更多的军舰!
My chinese is pretty shoddy but it does say the 4th will be seen pretty soon. (?)

re: PLAN Type 071 LPD & its Landing Craft
You can disregard the 4th paragraph, what's on 2nd is that...
It's certain that the 4th 071 LPD is coming its its way.
3rd paragraph...
From the look of progress, 071 has entered serial production, thus production pace is faster than the 1st and 2nd, especially so in dock timem section production skill has grown more matured. with reasonable adjustment on dock works, dock time could be further reduced.

well thats interesting cus i know many people thought that maybe only 3 Type 071 were going to be built

re: PLAN Type 071 LPD & its Landing Craft
Really? I always thought 071 would be built in pretty significant numbers. I'm hoping for 6 either in service, built and under construction by 2015.

re: PLAN Type 071 LPD & its Landing Craft
Although being a large ship, type 071 is not expensive. Wiki says it cost like 3B USD and is only slightly more expensive than 054A. There is certainly no problem of building them in large quantity if needed.

re: PLAN Type 071 LPD & its Landing Craft
3B USD is not just slightly more expensive than type 054A. If you trust wiki, it list type 054A's price as 1.58B Yuan.
But I think it is a given that the PLAN will eventurally have those 071s in numbers.
edit: wiki says 300 mil, in which case it is comparable to the type 054A. btw 300 mil is 0.3 Bil, it goes up by factor of 1000.
edit2: My bad, it's yuan not yen.

re: PLAN Type 071 LPD & its Landing Craft
well if China can deploy up to 6 Type 071 LPDs it will be able to deploy 1-2 regiments anywhere in the world for a amphibous landing, and if they have 3 LHDs added to that they could even come close to deploying a entire Division, that is a serious landing force in todays terms
6 LPD + 3 LHD would carry minimum (6x2) 12+(16x3) 48 total of 60 helos, or max ~70 for logistics at sea
obviously they would need a carrier to cover all this

re: PLAN Type 071 LPD & its Landing Craft
Allow me to interupt, are you refering 1.58 billion Yuan which is RMB? or you are quoting some japanese source? (which is "yen")
A sidenote: I have no potent knowledge about this, so it's all here-say: I once heard Chinese ICBM (which one I am not sure) is like 几亿 a pop, means several 100 million yuan per pop. So put things together, if you think 300 mil a pop of 071 is not expensive (which, I have no idea), China surely have no problem of producing ICBMs like candys...
But people always likes to point out that "obvious" sources all indicating China dose have ICBM stockpile problems, I suppose at least the CMC (which is "everybody's boss") would not make 071s like lego toys either.

1.58 billion RMB is a pretty widely quoted figure from a pretty good source back in the days. Can't remember who exactly. If you look at how fast they are building 054As now, it shouldn't be surprising to you that they can build it cheaply. And 071 really shouldn't be that expensive either. Kanwa said that the export version of 071 that China was offering to Malaysia was 1/3 the price of what Europeans were offering them at. And the domestic version should be even cheaper. So, you can get an idea of the pricing from that. By the way, more pictures of the second Type 071. And I'm pretty sure we will get more pictures of 3rd and 4th 071. The guy who mentioned the 4th 071 is the same guy that takes these photos. He is pretty accurate
