Missiles are contrained by the tiny size of the Mk41. So, even if it has more cells, it lacks the firepower enabled by 112 850mm cells that can launch hypersonic glide missiles.
Daniel Perry
>The ships are a demonstration of the power, prestige and indeed majesty of the Chinese state and its ruling party," he added Lol when you read something like this your expecting to see a super-Yamato or Montana sized BB not some dingy little DD
This, somewhat.. China has zero force projection, but Japan is still an ally. A needed one.
Jacob Smith
anyone else get a feeling lockmart intentionally leaked the F35 plans on purpose for more gibs?
Carter Butler
The hot launch sleeve shrinks it to a similar size to the Mk41. And the graphic used to imply the 055 will have a hypersonic glide weapon implies a ballistic flight path, not a hypersonic glide path.
Oliver Morgan
Yes, but the biggest missiles are all cold launched.
Angel Hall
They have to be bigger because they are cold launched, it is not an inherent performance increase compared to hot launched missiles.
Landon Davis
>Still shorter than burke Gooks confirmed to be manlets
Landon Roberts
>it's in a power point slide >that means the weapons exist
Boy oh boy do I have some darpa shit to show you.
Julian Diaz
you what?
Small missiles like the Khinzal are cold launched, just as super large and long range SAMs like the S-400, so basically there is no correlation here. Cold Launch has the advantage of launch speed compared to hot launch that needs to wait for the exhaust ports to be free for the subsequent launches
Brayden Nelson
Yeah, we have seen DARPA shit about literally everything, including the railgun.
And guess who actually realized the railgun and mounted it on a boat for naval tests. Not the USN.
>compared to hot launch that needs to wait for the exhaust ports to be free for the subsequent launches The weapon itself has to clear, and each cell does not have its own gas generator.
There is no correlation in launch rate increase for either system.
Benjamin Barnes
>lol tugboats xDDDDDDDD le Chyna right? do i fit in? Go back to Quora Pajeet
Jack Gutierrez
Guess who didn't actually test the gun? Guess who actually did?
Ethan Williams
OK chicom, I have to know. This will be the 20th time you brought it up. what's your fixation on quora. Yes, I had to google it.
Why do you care?
Jonathan Nelson
China. China did it and moved to the next stage - naval railgun tests.
Nope, zero proof of tests at all. They didn't even test the naval gun.
Meanwhile BAE has tests available to be viewed in high def.
Gavin Collins
>China did it Oh? Well then let's see it.
Jackson Torres
>Caring about what CNN says. Full stop at CNN, who in the entire universe cares what these dying and utterly irrelevant yellow propaganda mills say?
James Roberts
Just because you didnt get to see it because you are just an amerifat and China has no need to convince you, doesnt mean that they didnt do it.
After all, it is China who has moved on to naval platform tests and not the US or Britain.
This fact alone is evidence enough that the West is just all talk and powerpoint and corruption.
Adrian Howard
>no proof of any tests of any kind. >no proof of the Railgun on the ship even being operational.
OK chicom I toats belive you. Super powerful. Much scary.

China does not exist to convince you.
Benjamin Mitchell
Nigger, I didn't say it was anything. I just asked what your issue with it is.
Some major projecting going on.
Nicholas Davis
Oh yes the Railgun absolutely exists you convinced me!
Adam Hernandez
Show me an american railgun on a boat that is not CGI or powerpoint.
China has one. You dont. Not even a mckup.

Like I said, I completely 100% believe you! The evidence of its existence is, indeed, without question.
Evan Hall
I am...not deflecting at all? I'm being very direct. What is your issue with it?
From your reaction it sounds like you, personally, didn't get enough upboats or some shit. Why do you care?
David Howard
Not even a mockup on a ship. Let that sink in for a moment.
You still can try to deny it, but deep down you know it is true. America is behind. In so so many fields.
>You still can try to deny it, Except I am 100% in agreement. The railgun clearly exists, your arguements are ironclad. They are without repute or question.
It has been clearly proven the functional railgun exists.

I don't know much about vessels or other naval shit, I just like these kinds of threads for the shitpost wars. And having lurked on a good number of them, I must say chinks are the most blatantly delusional fuckers on Jow Forums.
Never have has there been a national inferiority complex manifest so thoroughly and so uniformly than chink shills.
what is your obsession with Indians? does this stem form something?
