In china they say 055式 destroyer, where 式 means Type. It's a suffix not a prefix. BUT it can be omitted

In china they say 055式 destroyer, where 式 means Type. …

so the 式 means Type, which is the same word as in the following pic (001 = Liaoning) at the right, so Type 001 to Liaoning is confirmend (isn't it ?)

and why do we have ...

Until further notice each aircraft carrier is unique, therefore no type series with more than one ship are formed.

what are you attempting to accomplish? explaining the Chinese what their designation is while you don't know the Chinese language??

EDIT it's reminded me of a former member who tried to "inform" me about Russian acronyms, but couldn't read the Cyrillic

The pic that you posted says 001型。
型 is an another way to say Type. On certain weapon they say 式 (usually smaller weapon) and on others they say 型

I don't explain, I am confused and ask - and in my information, also the pic that I posted says 001型。型 is an another way to say Type.
So again - isn't "type 001" confirmed by this pic???

a typical cross section of an US Navy Nimitz carrier and the module we can see in Shanghai. Note the torpedo protection system in light blue and brown color.

The "torpedo protection system" is really little more than just fuel and fresh water tanks.

So again - isn't "type 001" confirmed by this pic?

Why is the term "type" important to you when every ship is its own type?

• Liaoning is Type 001 and Chinese people call it just 001
• The 2nd carrier is Type 002 and Chinese people call it just 002
• The 3rd carrier is Type 003 and Chinese people call it just 003
