re: PLAN Type 071 LPD & its Landing Craft
There's a security theory of "no read up, no write down". I said it is not worthy to actually having strategic assets to do the non-nuke SLBM business - but it didn't violate any security measure to have them do it anyway, did it?
Anyway, it's a little far from the "300mil USD a pop of 071" topic, nosh and you clarified the money issue, I now cleared - 300mil USD is expensive enough.

no it isn't considering the comparable San Antonio cost in excessive US$1 billion dollars, US$300 million dollars is real bang for buck.

I also would believe because the ship is still currently being built and hasn't been commissioned, the shipyard will not have access to a real PLAN helo for testing purposes, thus a mock up for them to conduct their work.

Doesn't make sense. They have already built one so the "Blue prints" should be correct.
I cannot see any logical reason for the need of Mockups or real helicopters. All they need to do is measure the metal work and check it with the drawings of the design.

Despite blue prints, you would still run through validation tests right? What if the test is a weight test? Regardless of actual reason, we do see pics of the new ship with mockups on board and I doubt they placed it there for picture ops.
