075 LHD thread

[Iron Man]

That sponson on the port side forward is clearly only about 2 decks high. However, the top side of the sponson is set only minimally below the level of the flight deck, meaning whatever you put on the top side of the sponson (like an Type 1130) will possibly stick up obtrusively past the floor of the flight deck, possibly interfering with flight ops such as by risking contact with rotating helo bladdes, UNLESS whatever equipment gets loaded onto the sponson, is flush or nearly flush with the level of the flight deck....

The other possibility that I just thought of is that the sponson actually has a solid rail already installed around the top side of the sponson, and the sponson is actually even less than 2 decks thick.

Actually L is for L-band.

That's what I thought the label said, probably speculated by the person who created the labels, but I don't think those slots are for L-band radars, but for IFF.

He means IFF in L-band.

Oh I see. My Chinese reading is not good. That sounds similar to Mark VII IFF with 1030Mhz send-interrogate 1090Mhz reply.

The straight lines on the design of the Type 075 remind me of Izumo class

Very modern looking

Not like the silly looking mistral class which looks like a floating cardboard box

Also not like the Canberra class either

Overall a nice design and glad they have done a good job

Some high-resolution updates...

Camera on P30 Pro works really well lol.

These seems to be older images. There are not radar installed on these ones, as compared to an earlier pictures.

I think its clear

China is now here to challenge Western dominance

and it looks like they want to do it head on

with 8 x LPD and 3 x LHD plus 2 x STOBAR and 1 x CATOBAR this is by far the most capable fleet second to USN

now the fact they are building 3 x LHD simultaneously and like they built 4 x Type 055 at breakneck speed this shows they are sending a clear message

They didn't have to build that fast and they dont have to even sometimes do double launches but they do it

basically China is no a longer a economic power but now a fully blown naval power

LHD construction has really changed things

I would like to see 3 x Type 075 @30,000 tons and 3 x Type 075A @40,000 tons
