And that shall give the hint that future PLAN frigates will be bigger in sizeFor now, any destroyer before 052C is no more than a frigate leader in PLAN.
.Should be 6000-7000 ton with 32 to 48 VLSAnd that shall give the hint that future PLAN frigates will be bigger in size
Yes, abd I think the new 054B may be 4500-5500 in tonnage and have a max speed of 30 knots to keep up with the aircraft carrier task force.And that shall give the hint that future PLAN frigates will be bigger in size
Or just generic missile representatives. The idea is to demonstrate the launcher, not the missiles.
What is that big blue missile in the front though? Looks like a huge booster section of some missile. But if so, I don't know of any Chinese missile with such a booster. ... Except for that one mystery missile from years ago, when a blurry image of a similar huge booster missile was coming out of a 052d (?) destroyer.
Or is it just yj18 or something like that, and the perspctive makes it look as if the booster is huge.
