>China’s is building destroyers faster than even the mighty U.S. Navy.
>China’s warship production has run at a breakneck pace for the better part of a decade and spans several shipyards, including Dalian. China laid down the hull of the first Type 052D destroyer in 2012; four years later, Jane’s reported seven Type 052Ds under construction at once. As of June 2017, there were thirteen Type 052Ds in service or under construction. Meanwhile, The Diplomat reports six Type 055s in various stages of production. That makes 19 destroyers in six years, or an average of just over three a year.
>In other words, in six years China began construction on three times more destroyers than in the ranks of the entire Royal Navy. Meanwhile, during the same time period the the U.S. Navy began construction on three Zumwalt-class destroyers and up to eight Arleigh Burke-class destroyers, for a total of 11. We don’t know how good (or bad) China’s new destroyers are, or even how many they eventually plan to build. We do know Beijing likes its current ships enough to mass produce them, and it is out-producing the U.S. Navy.
Wait, what would happen in China were to take on a European naval power on the seas ? Are we (UK) and France still ahead or has China blown past us both and is on track to match the yanks?
I'd reckon that our arguably superior machinery would ensure some degree of combat disparity in our favour, even in the face of their numerical advantage
Kayden Campbell
Not superior, since Chinese ships are both larger in size and number of weaponry, as well as electronic and radar systems.
What's to calm down about? I'm questioning the scenario. Neither of those navies are structured to take on the PLAN solo style.
Adrian Turner
yes, their pyramid scheme of an economy is far superior to any scam ever conducted in Britain.
William Mitchell
both France and UK operate SSBNs so that makes them automatically very good navies, but if you count just conventional forces i'd could be arued that the JSMDF is a better blue water navy than both (especially since it's now confirmed that the Izumos can take the F-35s). I really wish the Japs would start putting offensive weaponry on their ships, they have metric fuckton od DDGs
>conventional forces i'd could be arued that the JSMDF is a better blue water navy than both Fight capability is not the defining characteristics of a blue water navy. It's logistics - meaning support ships and overseas bases.
True enough, i kind of forgot that desu and both the UK and France can project their power more easily as they have more colonies/foreign bases + the frogs have a nuclear powered Aircraft Carrier which (if it doesn't encounter any problems) can project power anywhere in the world. Still, the JSMDF seems to have it's shit together, as their newer ships/submarines/ ASW planes are all top notch.

>*imports chinese made crane to build its own aircraft carriers*
Something something single swipe something something west something something China
Benjamin Williams
This is more of a slant against ZPMC, if they were willing to respond to an international bid to supply a crane to build a warship.
Besides, that's not as bad as the PLAN having to import British superconductor technology for the Chinese EMALS.
Logan Turner
>import British superconductor technology
They purchased a company that had that technology back in 2014, but I seriously doubt that it contributed much to the development of the railgun, since such a project would go back at least another decade.
Lucas Mitchell
>China’s breakthrough in EMALS is due in no small part to the fact that it can now produce its own IGBT chips with the required specifications, according to an article by the Hong Kong-based South China Morning Post. The same article says that China secured the critical IGBT technology it needed by acquiring Dynex Semiconductor, a relatively small British semiconductor company that sold 75 percent of its share to Zhuzhou CSR Times Electric, a Chinese state-owned enterprise. m.theepochtimes.com/by-snatching-up-british-company-china-closes-gap-on-us-naval-supremacy_2389025.html Right, sure. Didn't help at all.
Yeah OK. The reincarnation of Jesus is Chinese, if your child catches a cold you should beat them to death and don’t eat anything other than Falung gong approved and branded food because regular food has bad thetans
Cameron Jones
Second super carrier missing?
Gavin Mitchell
Yay, And with "China Quality" this mean over half of them will randomly burst into flames before leaving port. GG China!
Jayden Butler
Bitch they make the most of everything how is that a pyramid scheme? I don't know any better objective measure of economic power than "they make moat of the world's everything"
Enjoy your economy built on ip rights and record labels. Sure that shit will be real useful in ww3.
Daniel Hernandez
Building ships is easy, the tricky part is getting the systems to work, testing it and get the C2 system and weaponry to work. All we can really see is that they can build hulls very fast
Lincoln Smith
The time for the UK to show some muscle in Asia was in the 1980s when the lease of Hong Kong was coming up.
Instead you invaded some useless rocks in the south Atlantic and gave away Hong Kong for nothing.
You're so deluded about the capabilities of the British Navy it is comical.
Ayden Butler
Coming from a fellow bong, don't expect the Type 45s to do jack shit in surface combat. Their primary tasking is air screening, some tacked on quad cells of Harpoons from the 70s aren't going to cut it, especially when we're talking the number disparity thats in effect here.
The real threat to 052Ds would be our sub fleet but again, theres only so much they can do. Our ASW has been cut again and again too, so expect Type 45s to get fucked by subs just as hard.
Our navy is small and spread thin as to be able to project across the world, but if shit really did hit the fan it would be a case of supporting the clappers, not attempting to do anything ourselves. We simply don't have the numbers to do anything more than squash third world dictators anymore. Certainly wouldn't be able to do anything meaningful ourselves in SEA.
The drivel you just wrote proves nothing that invalidates it as a source.
Daniel Watson
The situations of HK and FK are very different.
Joshua Hall
China's color scheme comes right out of a PS1 video game's depiction of what the chinese army would look like the in future.
Luis Morales
Wouldn't be hard. All they would have to do is build a fleet of oil tankers and wait for the US military to crash into them.
Isaac Gutierrez
>Instead you invaded some useless rocks in the south Atlantic and gave away Hong Kong for nothing. Deng put a gun to Thatchers head and threatened to airdrop a division on HK if she invalidated the contract, and she knew there was nothing she could do against it.

thank you

The corner cutting that got the 001A manager in trouble isn’t a good sign for the PLAN.

Wow, did China seriously just copy+paste the Arleigh Burke? Looks so fucking similar.
