There is an overwhelming amount of pictures here taken inside the 168. Almost like nothing is missed, even the mess halls are photoed. Are there any British based SDF members that look those in the pictures?

Great pictures. Very insiteful. Does anyone know where the ship was docked when the pictures where taken? Thanks..

Well as I look at the pictures I could not help but to notice how pristine everything looked. It was if everything was brand new. I could still smell the fresh paint...Honestly this is typical of navies around the world to show off their best. That is one of the cleanest appearing warships I have ever seen..

This was when 168 visited the UK, where for the second time, it held an open house. The first open house was during the Russian leg of the tour.

Re: PLAN Pictures Thread 4

more pictures, I'm utterly confused by this actually. I thought it's suppose to be launched already, this picture is still quite a bit from complete. Not sure if this is from a while back or that there are multiple 991 with the same hull number.

Too much pics from this thread to post here. This shows DDG 112 and supply ship 881 during their visit to Australia with lots of close up pics.

Re: PLAN Pictures Thread 4

all minesweepers look the same to me, so here we go, the commissioning of 810 and the commissioning of the 888 replenish ship.

In a time of war, are the Yuanwangs legitimate targets?

That would be a yes. What is the ship used for?

The PLA Navy currently operates a fleet of four Yuanwang space tracking ships to support China’s intercontinental-range ballistic missile (ICBM) testing and space programmes. These ships, together with the land-based domestic and overseas space tracking stations, provide China with a global space tracking, telemetry, and control (TT&C) network that can continuously detect, track, and control satellites and manned spacecraft in space. So far the four Yuanwang ships have carried out over 50 key missile testing and space flight support missions successfully.

Trust me it's a target.

yeah, they are an important part of China's C4SIR network. I can't imagine them not being targets.
