The modern naval guns are automatic, and have a higher rate of fire and longer range and greater accuracy, putting an equal number of rounds on target to about 12 of the older guns.

055 VLS is cold hot launch means missiles can ignite inside like US or press into air then ignite like Russia, and it holds missile up to 9 meter long, bigger than US MK41 VLS, it’s the only type can house ballistic missile currently. The radar is dual active array vs. US mostly old single array radar. The 1130 CWIS can fire over 10 thousand rounds per minute. Make fun of it or not, this is a very powerful war ship. China just launched the number 9 new version of this ship and with more to come. Be interested to see you review their new 6000 ton 054B frigate.

Having seen this ship up close and personal, aesthetically this is a good looking man of war.

I will say one positive about this ship, if the 130 is a HP rifle, that’s very powerful.

not really a challenger for the Tike's, it's hull is too shallow to fully accommodate the largest VLS missiles in all cells, making it more focused around anti air stuff.

These vessels are important but represent a fairly limited capability to control sea space unless part of a carrier group in which its role becomes defensive of the carrier which is able to control a huge amount of air and sea space. China has two operating carriers, fairly old Russian tech and lightly armed with small limited capability air groups. The type 3 carriers are critical as they start to approach closer to the existing US Nimitz or Ford class carriers. However, China still lacks both aircraft and trained personnel to deploy a fully operational carrier wing as well as lack of operational experience, which the US has 60 years or more of experience in. None of these carriers are nuclear so needing replenishment. This leaves China with some likely very capable pieces but still lacking clear combined arms capabilities and experience to make them work.

We know their subs are at least a decade behind, their carriers are very limited and the journey to carrier capability will be long and expensive, likely decades or more and the US continues to evolve things like the longer range anti-ship missiles, the ability to launch these in air dropped pods from cargo planes, stealth fighters, 5th and now 6th generation along with drones that can be both aerial refueling platforms and stealth missile launch platforms as well as stealth bombers like the B2 and now the B21.

@@TelpPov One is a Russian hull, the other is a locally made copy of the first. Both are ski jump designs and carry J15’s (SU-33 copies). The arrestor gear is a Russian design that China purchased. The J15’s cannot carry a full fuel or munitions load from the carriers due to the ski jump and the stress it places on the airframe. These carriers served the purpose of developing basic carrier skills and tactics, don’t think China ever considered fighting a war with them. The Fujian, type 03 is also a transition ship. It moves from ski jump to catapult but remains conventional powered. The catapults are now EMAL’s but it is not clear if this is operational yet as it is rumored it was a leadership decision to jump to EMAL’s by Xi despite China having some access to steam catapults from the scrapping of the Australian carrier in 1985. The real capability is type 04, not even laid down. This will feature nuclear propulsion as well as EMAL’s. By that time China may have a decent designed for carrier aircraft with stealth as well as a convincing load out and numbers. Importantly, 03 will also see the local P2 airborne radar capability on board for enhanced sensor capability and battle management. In short, China is unlikely to have full force projection carrier capability till the 2040’s. Keep in mind that the US has been at this game since the 2030’s along with the Brits who pioneered this. This is the most complicated piece of military tech on the planet. The overriding issue is economic, can China sustain its military spending and develop the associated technology to truly make the superpower navy club. The peaking of the economy does not bode well for China and China still lags significantly in chip technology which only becomes more critical. The remaining question is more fundamental, will carriers remain the ultimate tool of strategic and tactical military force projection in the coming AI age? Look at the new xtra large unmanned submersible that Boeing just delivered to the navy. The risks for carriers continue to accelerate and China needs 20 years or more to get to where the US is now on the basic capabilities of operating a modern carrier. By the time they arrive it may all have changed.

Taiwan is not Crimea and Taiwan is far more prepared than an ambushed and distant province in a massive country.

Watch "sub brief" for more detailed information on this.

I mean good luck floating through the submarine fleet. Going against the father of the modern navy here. China would be slapped

Lets dust off the 8inch mclwg......

lol it will catch fire brake down and turn out to be half what they say it is, If it's internals are not sold to cash converters.

They would make good artificial coral reefs.

Gadfly here 😵. Try the three rivers gorge on for size, think the world wouldn’t flood china in a minute 😵‍💫

When Chinese mainland attacks its own territory, I mean Taiwan, it is not invasion.

BB-63 needs to be pulled out of retirement, naval technicians to perform service extension maintenance, upgrade sensory and processing, port and starboard armaments replaced by CRAM and CWIS, stern deck turret replaced with VLS armed with Tomahawks and Harpoons, and rear deck to accommodate an SH-60.

I also would love to see an Iowa class battleship sail the high seas again but it will never happen. We could probably build a new battleship from scratch cheaper than it would cost to rehabilitate a 80+ year old warship......BB-62, The "Big J" is currently in dry dock though!🤔🫡 🇺🇸

Might as well build a entirely new ship. What a lot of "bring the battleship back" guys are ignorant of is that warship gun barrels can only fire a limited number of shells before needing to be completely replaced. That was a big factor on why the bombardment of Iwo Jima didn't last as long as was requested since that would cause a lot of a lot of ships to prematurely head back for barrel replacement. When was the last time they had those guns changed on the Iowas? Are there even any spare guns left when the guns inevitably wear out? The battleship was supported by an entire big gun industry that NO LONGER EXISTS.

@@klade5031 It wouldn't be hard to replace gun barrels, they are only steel. I'm not ignorant to the fact that firing induces ware and tear. The initial comment was just food for thought, to plant a seed of imagination and share mine, of what a refurbished BB-63 might look like.

Hoping it will not be destroyed before the war biggins.

If it has fully electric propulsion then how much of the ship is dedicated to battery storage? Don't see any solar panels ao either it is made of lithium ion or else it has an extremely small range. You would think they would have thought about that suring the design phase. Or is there a aupport ship with a Tesla power station and a really long extension cord onboard?

Diesel generators.

It either uses diesel engine's or gas turbines to spin a generator. Nearly the same way you get electricity at home. It's been used on and off since at least WW2

No ship will be "fully electric" since that power has to be generated someplace and unless you have an extension cord thousands of miles long, you're not going to get that electricity from shore. Electric drive means that the engines spin generators and then you use that electricity to power electric motors for everything on the ship, including it's propulsion. @@goatman3828
