Understanding China's Type 055 Destroyer: Is it the World's Strongest?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 сен 2024
- The Chinese PLA Navy's Type 055 destroyer is arguably the most powerful surface combatant in the world. It combines strong stealth features with heavy firepower in the anti-air, anti-ship and anti-submarine domains.

The Type 055 Destroyer is the reason why I got interested in destroyers of late. I think it looks incredibly sleek and menacing, especially the nose (beak) shape that no other destroyer has. Then I learned about it's other features and capabilities through channels such as this and I'm thoroughly impressed, especially the short amount of time it took China to design, develop and put it in service. Personally, I hope China can produce at least 24 Type 055s to put into service (even more will be better) and upgrade all of them with even more and better weapons with upgraded sensors and electronics.
I actually cannot express how genuinely criminaly underated this comment actually is and this world and community actually genuinely needs more people actually like you in this world and you actually couldn't have said that actually any better than me and l actually thought that l was the only one who actually thought that and out of all the languages that you chose to speak you chose to speak fact
In 2011 I'd draw futuristic PLAN warships but the Type-055 is way nicer than anything I'd imagine.
Yep, not just sleek and menacing but also the largest and most technologically advanced destroyer in operation.
I actually genuinely agree with you @@pendulmonium
The tenth Type-055 is already undergoing sea testing. Next to be built is an improved version of the Type-055.
The Type-055 series is expected to build at least 24 ships.
The Type 055s are oozing sexiness and lethality in equal measure!
I actually genuinely agree with you
The more beautiful the warship looks, the stronger its combat power is.
How many miles can it travel before refueling?...
Although there might be some debate in which destroyer is the most capable, this destroyer is without a doubt the most beautiful looking one of them all. Gosh, its design is such an eye candy to me.

055型，真是漂亮又流線，火力猛。
The Americans did not classify the Type 055 as cruiser based only on displacement or weapon loads. Instead of being just an escort for carriers, they believe the Type 055 has flag facilities for senior Chinese flag officer and his staff to command the fleet from, like their own Ticonderoga-class cruiser. The Zumwalts have heavy displacement but are not configured for that.
Type 055 is a Ticonderoga killer.
@@LordEmperorHyperion That remains to be seen. And hopefully for all, that possiblity will never be tested.

Having watched the Chinese navy since the early 90s, seeing it grow from a soviet style coastal force to a true blue-water navy has been pretty amazing
I can only compare it to the growth of the US Navy in the 1890 - 1910s or the Imperial German Navy in the same period
The Soviets in their heyday actually had many seriously powerful ocean going surface combatants, like their four Kirov-class battlecruisers commissioned in the 80s. The Soviet navy was not a coastal force then but true blue-water navy.

On paper yes. We also believed the russian army were top tier until they decided to test it themselves. Until now ,all we know is what it on paper can do, and all we know about it´s real capabilities is that it can sail without sinking. But it is a beautiful ship.
On paper, yes - but as typical with Russian and Chinese weapons, they always over estimate their own hardware.
@@emacstac @clausjensen5658 If you want to prove that your statement may be correct, it's very simple. Please give an incident where a Chinese Type 055 destroyer appeared near a US aircraft carrier battle group, but the US aircraft carrier did not take the initiative to escape. (There are many opposite examples, and I still recommend you to learn more)
In addition, you can check on the official website of the US military to see how many aircraft carriers the US deployed in the Western Pacific in the past and whether they still have them now.
If other people are interested in the above information, they can also do a verification.
Don’t equate the power of your speech with the value of the content of your speech, arbitrarily comment on things that you lack understanding of, and be unwilling to accept relevant information feedback resulting from this...
In fact, idiots often speak in an effort to prove how stupid they are.
A person standing naked on a crowded street, and when advised to put on clothes before coming out, insists that she has the freedom to streak, and that she does not consider herself naked.
This ridiculous situation is very funny, and I hope more people can see it and smile because of it.
@@clausjensen5658 You’re right to be cautious; what’s on paper doesn’t always play out in reality. We’ve seen with Russia that just having advanced tech doesn’t guarantee a win. China’s naval warfare capabilities are different; they’ve been making huge strides, especially with missile systems and electronic warfare. The Type 055 isn’t just sleek; it’s got the capabilities to back it up.
And this goes for any major military power, whether we’re talking about China, Russia, or the U.S. These nations aren’t pushovers, and unlike in conflicts like Iraq or Afghanistan, these countries can fire back just as hard. It’s a different ballgame when the opponents have comparable military strength.
China’s edge, though, comes with their sheer production speed and cost-efficiency. They’ve got a population of over 1.4 billion compared to the U.S.’s 330 million, which gives them a massive pool of potential recruits if it came to that. Their ability to crank out military hardware at a rapid pace is something that definitely shouldn’t be ignored, even if the Type 055 hasn’t seen real combat yet.
At the end of the day, it’s smart to be skeptical, but we also can’t overlook the potential of these ships.
Great work, as usual, ENI. Keep up the good work. Looking forward for the latest sitrep on the Fujian maritime flight trials for the J15s, J35s and the KL200 from her deck. Later still the expected launch of the Type 004 in the coming year or so? Cheers.

@@ghf9219 l actually agree with you
It's true that calling the Zumwalt a destroyer was pretty ridiculous. The only thing that can be said is that its primary intended purpose was shore bombardment rather than sea control, making it arguably a green-water navy ship (although green water is usually used in a defensive rather than offensive context). Whereas cruisers are meant to be fast, long-range ships capable of engaging in sea control battles in the far, open ocean.
The ZUMWALT is clearly a light cruiser (CLG)
That’s a beauty! Gives me the same vibe as Star Destroyer!
I actually genuinely agree with you
Thank you for another very interesting and informative video! The Type 055 destroyer is both aesthetically pleasing and lethal. Impressive.
Displacement is just one of the things that get factored into something being designated a frigate/destroyer/cruiser etc. Other considerations include politics and fleet role. For example, many surface combatants in Europe are designated as frigates despite being larger than many destroyers, simply because 'frigate' is considered to be a less hostile-sounding term.
The RCN has to be different.....their new soon to be built (fingers crossed) River Class Destroyers are based on the BEA Systems Type-26 Frigatea aka City Class.....
Is cos the Jap Self Defense call their baby aircraft carriers Kaga and Izumo as destroyers. Is a secret insider joke.
Chinese netizens often say, "Produce warships like making dumplings." China needs to build faster and improve faster to face the potential Third World War. Only by being prepared for war can we avoid war.
Everyone is looking forward to the improved version of the Type 055 destroyer, the Type 076 light aircraft carrier, the Type 004 carrier, and subsequent nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.
I actually genuinely agree with you and you actually couldn't have said that actually any better than me and out of all the languages that you chose to speak to chose to speak facts
Chinese netizens also says its better to build warships than paying war reparation, and also 60% of largest navy is the weakest navy of the world
China already has the most advanced missiles on the planet and China's warships are largely defensive in nature and don't venture far from China. Therefore, the US would never send one or two carrier groups to face off against China's entire naval fleet plus the full might of the entire country.

It's certainly a good looking ship, and extremely powerful!
I heard that thos destroyer jammed a fleet of ships, a US Carrier fleet. Is it true?
The combat radius of U.S. aircraft carrier-based aircraft is 700 kilometers，The 055's anti-ship ballistic missile has a range of 1,500 kilometers，For their own safety, American aircraft carriers must stay away
It's true
the type 815 also did the same
@@danielmuller5739The OP asked if a Chinese warship had jammed an entire US fleet. You responded by citing the range of the ship's anti-ship ballistic missiles.
It would behoove you to learn the difference between jamming and striking.

Best destroyer in the world. Much better than old and antique arleighbough or whatever.
Remember guys, this destroyer caused US navy commander, William Coulter to be sacked and their media are too embarrassed to report about it 😂😂😂
I actually genuinely agree with you
Many things are in a way "theoretical". And some things as assumption due to information being classified. It's really hard to gauge the true performance/potential of this ship especially compared to western alternative from tried and tested/matured platforms, as well real world know-hows(naval tactics & doctrines). It's giving resemblance with the Mig 31, it struck fear to the West, only to be found out and it fell short from expectation(with it's capability), expectation vs. reality kind of thing.
And yet none of these have been tested in combat.
@@justinvfernando Tested/matured platforms is a vague concept, more like an excuse to cover up the slow technology iteration. Humanity has not had a large-scale naval battle since World War II, so intercepting some of the Houthis' crudely made ballistic missiles can become "the most intense naval battle of the US Navy since World War II." Before the war breaks out, no one knows what kind of design is mature.
@@garlicbrehd357 very few warships have been "tested in combat" after World War II
I also would consider this ship as a Cruiser with 115 missle cells, no US destroyer has this capacity
the Ticonderoga has a 122vls/vertical launch systems while the type 055 has 115 so america does has ships with the same amount is china's type 115

@@juhao356and yet USS Carney came back last year downing 45 UAVs, ASCMs, and ballistic missiles.. and she’s not even a Block 3. Burkes are definitely old but still need to be respected
Bonjour , merci pour votre excellente vidéo .
I have a question does China have several dedicated anti air missles for let's say ballistic missle defense like the US does? I've heard of the HHQ series but are there any Chinese equivalents to the SM-6 and SM-3 or a vls quad version of the ESSM? Also good video I just wished you still posted on your second channel ❤
HHQ-9B is a capable missile, it's mounted on the 055 and can easily outperform the SM-3, but it's not as capable as the SM-6.
They have 2 Missile - HQ19 and HQ26
HQ26 is SM3 equivalent and especialy tailor made for Renhai class - the VLS launcher in midship is dedicated for them. its been tested 3 times as far as public know
its unknown if they actualy have deployed or not. however Chinese MilBlogger speculated its 1 or 2 years away from it
HQ19 is "supposedly" enter services since 2021, buts it unconfirmed - it reportedly similiar capability wise with THAAD -
Excellent deep dive. 👍
Type 055 ❤
its the strongest Destroyer in Modern Warships, most f2p players always use it
A ship being a corvette / fregate / destroyer / cruiser is not really decided based on the ships tonnage. It's more about the ships intended use case
Yet cheaper to build than a Constellation class FFG.
type 55 is soooo pretty ...
Reports said china has launched 2 more 055 destroyer in 2024 and they can launch 2 more too, so china is producing so fast
That's because the Chinese actually invest in their shipbuilding whereas we (the USA) just pays lip service to it.

I hope they improve it further.. make it 20,000 tons displacement and a 192 or 200 VLS..
The size of the vertical launch system on the Ticonderoga class cruisers is 635mm, and the size of the vertical launch system on the 055 class destroyers is 850mm. This is the biggest gap. This is also the reason why the 055 level is known as the strongest in the world.
THANK YOU FOR POINTING OUT AMERICAN HYPOCRISY REGARDING THE CLASSIFICATION OF CRUISERS👍
I classify it as a cruiser and I like it very much. It is, however, just a light cruiser. Something even bigger is needed
She's a bit heavy for a light cruiser, the Town Class Light Cruiser the HMS Belfast came in at just under 11,000 Tons. and a USN heavy cruiser of the same period came in at around 14,000 to 15,000 long tons.

Large destroyer ❌
Cruiser ✅

Um destroier com o peso de um cruzador 💪💪💪💪
055 most advanced and lethal .
"Large destroyer" makes no sense when there has been a class already in use for decades: Light Cruiser.
Also, displacement is surely NOT the only factor that determines possible category. The firepower and role are even more important factors. Zumwalt has only 80 VLS-cells. That's pathetic number, and thus it's not a flagship capable carrier escort, like the Type 55 LIGHT CRUISER is.
I still expect special low cost mass produced subs designed to usually remain attached to surface fishing boats or destroyers under the hull. With air and electricity and communication to the surface ship via a physical docking hatch hidden under the ship hull. This is to have the advantage of submersibles (hidden, safe from air attack) yet have long range, long endurance deployment by electricity/ provisions from the surface ship.
In 10 years everything on the surface is gonna have trouble surviving hypersonic attacks, drone swarm attacks and hiding.
Don't forget the Unicorn Shit launchers
It was never war tested, will see how fast will the wolf class will sink them😂😂
I swear this is a reupload because I think you already did a video on this topic before.
With that being said, something of note is that the UVLS on chinese Type055s and 052Ds are significantly larger than the Mk41s on US warships. If china had instead made them roughly the same size, a Type 052D would be roughly equal to a burke with 90VLS and the Type055 would have a monstrous 160VLS
Is China already planning a replacement for the type 055
or at least an enhancement?
They seem to always be updated their ship designs, especially with their frigates.
The 055B is almost finished.
@@625as-pj5mg Maybe Eurasia Naval Insight will have a future video on this?
2:10 it does make sense to call the type 055 a cruiser and the zumwalt a destroyer because though displacement is one part of it its not the only part. Cruisers are large warships that are built with flag facilities for an admiral to be able to command a task force or battle group from. The type 055 was designed with this mission in mind and the facilities just like the ticonderoga class. The zumwalt were not designed for this role they were designed for shore bombardment.
Request, please make a video about Akizuki class destroyer
20:57 "Anti-submarine warfare is another strong suite.." That's an English-language vocabulary error. The correct term is "strong suit", not "strong suite." "Strong suit" is an expression from games that use standard decks of playing cards, with each card having a type or "suit" (pronounced like "sute" or "soote") of ♠,♥,♦, or♣. Depending on the game and circumstances, a given suit might be the "strong suit" - one which is more valuable or effective. The term is used outside of card games to mean a specialty or proficiency. "Suite" refers to a room, or set of rooms or set of software programs; there is no such expression as "strong suite".

As an 80s kid who loved Tom Clancy novels, China's ascendancy is like deja vu watching their new carriers, destroyers, fighters and bombers evolve. However, China has *never* been tested in combat in the modern era, and their WW2 experience was, let's be honest, disastrous. China looks good on paper, but a "paper superpower" they will always be until they actually get tested.
The US Navy has not fought a major naval battle since WWII and back then, the planes all had propellers. Also modern confrontations involve mostly missiles and drones. Neither country has actual experience on any true scale.
@@RePete02 that's just it. even combat experience from 20 years ago is now horribly outdated.
It seems your knowledge of China's history is less than limited. Not going to bother as it is quite long. But it is strikingly a mistake to underestimate the Chinese. Look up the Korean War and the Vietnam war. Educate yourself.
@@canismajoris3910 I see a lot of coping down to "battlefield experience" in comments these days - without them figuring out that battlefield experience was tossed out the window with the advent of drones and AI.
@trevorsutherland5263 needs to read the report on how the type 55 overcame the growler's EW and kept locked onto the US carrier to the point where they retreated once the type 55 took the covers off their missiles. I was surprised by the depth of china's combat systems and ability to bypass the EW suite tossed at them. A little worried that the US is relying on this fabled "combat experience"
He probably also needs to read the report on how a Chinese sub shadowed a US carrier battlegroup undetected by the battlegroup until they analyzed the sound back in the US post-deployment. they could have sunk a carrier without the US even knowing it was there. That I think alarmed me the most, since china was supposed to be no where near that competent in submarine warfare.
This take the bait talk is propaganda for losers. The American battle experience of loss after loss, including Americans recently trying to turn the tide within the territory of Ukraine, is not a proud one. No one wants to emulate the battle experience of reckless and scarred warmongering losers who never learn!

Why?
Make it comparable to a Guided Missile Crusier CG, like the Ticonderoga class.
The Korean Destroyer the Sejong The Great class, seems to have more VLS cells than the 055, but its has only a few ships of the class.
Sejong The Great class is weak on radars. and the most critical thing is Sejong The Great is not 100% local built.
The MK-41 and KVLS-1 are too small and shallow, and coupled with US export restrictions, the Sejong class has a weak anti-ship capability, with only 32 Hyunmoo-3 cruise missiles. The Jeongjo class is equipped with KVLS-2 launch units that are larger than the 055, can be equipped with larger anti-ship missiles (if the Koreans can develop them). But the Jeongjo class even more expensive, South Korean Navy only plans to equip only three ships, followed by the KDDX, which is closer to the 055 size.

Can you comment on discussions by Chinese Internet commentators that in May, 2022, a Type 055 DDG, assisted by other PLAN and PLAAF assets, engaged and won an EW battle against a US carrier task force? I take such claims with many grains of salt, but it doesn't mean something didn't happen. Here's the link to one of such discussions: ruclips.net/video/9wh-xP49OL0/видео.html
There's a more recent episode in which US and Chinese forces reportedly engaged in electronic warfare battles in the South China Sea, specifically surrounding the Second Thomas Shoal of the Spratly Islands. This was informally reported by US and local sources, although without official acknowledgement from either side. The contest lasted twelve hours reportedly, with the US fleet forced to withdraw after their communication and navigation were disrupted. While I wouldn't put too much weight on individual events, there is a repetition of the US coming out second best in recent confrontations. That said, there were cases where the US reportedly got the upper hand, for example apparently having success against the Type 055 DDG during Pelosi's flight to Taiwan. The general conclusion I'd draw is that US capability in EW in the naval and aerial domain is being increasingly challenged, although there is too much noise to really say who is really ahead.
@@EurasiaNaval - in the 2023 Second Thomas Shoal incident, there were reports of widespread GPS and communication outages in northern Philippines, but Chinese netizens surmise it was done by the US to concentrate resources and bandwidth for the EW battle, or exchange if that's a less threatening word, and not by PLAN/PLAAF units. That sounds reasonable to my layman years.

It is pretty clear that the CCP has made a (poor) copy of a bad US littoral ship (the Zumwalt class since removed from service). Recent information confirms that these new destroyers rely on a vertical launch system that is questionable in terms of reliability and effectiveness.
Most Chinese military hardware is either a product of espionage or outright attempts to replicate western systems. While they have been very active in intel gathering from the West, their access to that technology is becoming increasingly limited. Add the fact that the CCP's economy is in rapid freefall, and the ability of the CCP to build, maintain, and operate a large blue water fleet is going to become prohibitively difficult.
Now i heard about it's capabilities for the 7th or 8th time, but i still don't understand it, because the language is so vague. For example: when would they start a helicopter if a submarine approaches it? How much time does that take, and would a submarine be close by then? Everytime i see those side bays for inflatable Rigid hull boats, i think to myself: wouldn't an unmanned anti submarine drone fit in there, and be much quicker to launch? One could install the same sonar, that is on the Helicopter on an unmanned underwater Drone. Yes, that would be expensive, but submarines are strategic assets. No excuse to not splurge a little, to get rid of them, or their torpedoes.. I like the hull shape, but wouldn't it be nice if it could intercept icbm's launched from a submarine while they are still in the acceleration phase? I know, that is not it's main purpose. But THAT would be a revolutionary "Strategic capability". Not a tactical one.
I suspect that if they thought there was a possiblity of a submarine lurking around in the area, they would have standing air patrols and given she is expected to be escorting a carrier group, her smallish air wing would not be the only assets in the the air.
Submarines would not aggressively go after destroyers, since the match up is in favor of the destroyer. They want to attack unescorted supply ships or oilers instead. So rather than defending the destroyer, the helicopter is there to patrol large areas far away. Nuclear attack submarines are extremely fast (40 mph), so you want something even faster to be able to cut off its escape routes after it's been detected. An underwater drone is simply too slow.
That's not to say underwater drones cannot be used, but rather I believe they'll be used in an ambush role, patrolling an area and making sure no enemy submarines can enter it. As such, there is no reason to carry them aboard a destroyer. They can get there under their own power.

Cruiser ! Not Destroyer ! 😅
I don’t like it because it seems more potent than Both the Burke and Ticonderoga Class. I feel like The USN just needs a 20,000 ton nuclear powered battle cruiser with 288 VLS cells.
Weight does not define a destroyer capabilities does

Nationalism is NAZI... Are you a NAZI
Yada yada yada here's the thing will it work when it is needed will a function when times are bad or or is it like what we call in America a trailer Queen
ha ha - US build quality. Jeep, Chrysler, GM, Ford, Dodge etc make the most unreliable cars in the world.
Your warships were kicked out of the gulf with the Houthis hitting your ships. Your taxpayers are paying for extremely technical equipment which is making your companies rich (and politicians) which are basically unusable in war.
Just like china did not copy declassified US hypersonic projects from the 1950's and 60's. Projects Alpha Draco and ASSET.
It's amazing how the chinese glide vehicle looks just like Project ASSET
@esawparkerjr637 hahaha same goes for America!! And here's the thing! 95% of your shit is decades old rusty crap that never worked properly in the first place and your infrastructure being tent city's are filled to the brim with junkies, filth and diseases. Your country is third world, you have and are, still building carriers that dont function and are obsolete anyway! Most of all? Your leadership is the biggest joke of all!! 🤡 What a bunch of clowns!¡!! Hahaha and you"bub?" Why would any of us, me included being Canadian myself, would take you seriously? GO AWAY!!!!!Lmfao
Look very intimidating and evil
If it is an American ship, will you say the same words?
Though it is an assumption, based not on classified documents, but solely on circumstantial evidence - I suspect that the emergence of the Chinese Type 055 guided missile destroyer is the result of *a **_vast, strategic_** technology transfer* from the Russian Federation to the People's Republic of China - due to aligning existential geopolitical interests.
The circumstantial evidence would be that China had lacked the shipbuilding expertise for _advanced_ , post-Cold War warships even after their accedence to the World Trade Organization in 2001, because the US had already shifted toward a strategy of antagonizing the country that had begun to normalize it's relation and national security policies with the former Soviet republic of Russia - arguably, the Chinese 'Open Door' policy of 1979 depended largely on a lingering ideological, low-intensity 'Sino-Soviet Split' in order to be supported by NATO member states and their economies (receiving a low cost manufacturing base in China in return that would break Western labor unions and social-liberal movements).
Apart from this diplomatic context, Russia's navy began to modernize it's doctrine around the same time - leading from a Corbettian cruiser fleet - and after the death of STALIN - Gorshkov's nuclear armed Naval Bastion (including Kiev-class helicopter carriers for anti-submarine warfare and large Kirov-class nuclear powered guided missile cruisers) and attack submarine strategy (e.g. Akula-class) to a focus on much smaller surface vessels like the Blue Water capable Admiral Gorshkov-class frigates (approved in 2003) and even Green Water sized Buyan-class corvettes, all armed with a potent 3S-14/UKSK Vertical Launch System that is designed to fire not only very long range supersonic Kalibr cruise missiles (described in Western literature with a range between 1500-2500 km) and heavy, ramjet driven, sea-skimming Oniks anti-ship missiles (600 km), but also the scramjet driven, hypersonic guided missiles Zirkon (1000 km) - thus dramatically increasing the number of defense saturating missiles in a fleet's volley without requiring the personnel, necessary for larger vessels.
EDIT: regarding empty NAFO agitation in replies, Western national security discourse characterized Russian Green Water guided missile surface vessel procurement as 'game changing' - especially when contrasted with the innovative, but failed US Littoral Combat Ship procurement:
('Russian Naval Strategy, Capabilities, Prospects')

It is not that the Chinese wouldn't have been able to develop ship designs and advanced equipment like RADARs of their own, in time - as they subsequently did (improving on Russian RADAR and eventually on gas-turbines, Russia had to import substitute after the US coup in Kiev) - but a transfer of an already built and sea-trialed platform would save at least a decade of doctrinal development as it did with the Soviet Kiev-class 'aircraft carrying guided missile cruisers' - and _arguably_ the blueprints for the never completed Ulyanovsk-class super-carrier as a functional outline for the Type 003 Fujian-class carrier.
The real take-away is not to marvel at any particular Chinese equipment, but to realize that it came about by a political alignment that is strong enough to break US maritime and political supremacy before mid-century.
Russia does not have the capability and technology to build modern warships

To dedicate that much deck space to anti frogman weapons tells me the Chinese are scared shitless of the SEALS.
不是，不要用这种误导性的标题。一艘普通的驱逐舰而已
This is not an “ordinary destroyer”. I don’t know any other destroyers that can launch AShBM’s or have a 9000 TRM GaN radar or have the largest VLS cells. But I know of one! The Type 055.
This is not destroyer, it's a cruiser or battlecruiser. That thing is huge.
old US destroyers were small
China’s destroyers are larger
old US cruiser sized
China don't use cruisers. For them, this is a destroyer, an evolution of the Type-52.
Bro that's American term
Chinese don't call it that
Does the word really matter?
@@CLAVISMARIS-mk9zpCruiser is a Mediterranean term not American.
我想变成舰娘侵犯055😊
The US designates this ship a cruiser mainly because of it weapon count and command and control capabilities. I highly doubt this ship’s signals processing is up to even the ancient Tico’s ability. So it’s a more powerful power hungry radar but less ability to actually distinguish what it’s seeing. While west gives its worst numbers for the performance of its hardware and software the Chinese and Russians offer their best numbers under optimal conditions. Beautiful ship tho. Another thing… I’m pretty sure this is a ccp sponsored page.
Let the bot attack begin 😂
Let me put it this way, if the US Navy can completely suppress the Chinese Navy, then the war would have started long ago. The United States can do anything to defeat China. If war can solve the problem, do you think the United States will not resort to war?
There are valid reports of US EW completely overwhelming this ships radar. Why are Chinese missiles so big ? Because Chinese tech is less advanced. Just look up the US MAKO missile
Another fake BS attempt by CIA bot. In fact it's the total opposite. US EW system was completely beaten by china's kill web just in December last year. As a result , they had to sack the commander responsible, William Coulter.
Again nice try bot
China's gallium nitride radar is far stronger than the American gallium arsenide radar. Brother, you know nothing about radar technology.

Weapons and weapons systems, command control and communications, network centric etc are a decade behind current western or Allied designs.
They might look sexy but given your average Chinese build quality as confirmed by many nations who have purchased their Naval products are 2nd rate.
Yes but actually no
Current western design, are you referring to Arleigh Burke flight III, Zumwalt, or Constellation?
@@alvinseah5423 Burke III, future Hunters, Maya class, KDX-III. Burke upgrades ect
Lol this clown commented the same thing with the Russian navy, if according to your logic America can just start the conflict at the direct front themselves without involving the Philippines and Japan as pawns. The Western Zumwalt and LCS are straight garbage if we are going to compare side by side with PLAN.
Secondly, if any country wanted to wage conflict with China, it would be in China backyard and considering China supply chain is WAY AHEAD 30YEAR(mature line) with Western counterpart. Good luck resupplying ammunition, wars machines and hardware. If you have any ideas about the German N4zi wars strategies, they are ahead of everyone including red army in terms of wars machines, technologies yet they succumbed at 3 front offensive. Learn history 🤡, if there one thing you need to understand is "logistic".
