Does anyone have more information about this new DDG? Could it be the rumored 051C? Here are a few photos. Looks to much like the 167DDG.

Seems like PLAN was satisified with the Luhai Class hull afterall. However, I noticed that a phased array radar is not installed which might suggest that this is a cost effective vessel. Since it lacks advanced phased array radar like 052C, it doesn't make much sense to install VLS on it.

It's assigned to the East Sea Fleet.

Hello! my Pakistan,friend,I come from Guangdong China, I don`t agree with that you said,The Number "115" means it assigned to the North Sea Fleet.

The Meaning of China`s DDG`s Numbers:

101~130 : North Sea Fleet ;

131~160 : East Sea Fleet;

161~180 : South Sea Fleet .

(I`m so sorry that I poor in English.)

So is this going to be the "rumored 051C" or just another DDG?
Probably just another Luhai with some upgrade...
The 51C would probably be bigger...

Could the 115 be the Type 054A FFG?
Some reports said that this type of the Type 054 FFG is designed for the foreign country`s NAVY,and it more advanced than that wich assigned to the PLAN,it have a VLS system.

The bow and superstructure are completely different. The vessel photographed has a raised "B" mount. Plus the comms and extraction structure is different.

There are quite a few Southeast Asian members here, but it's not intended to be a Pakistani site. We welcome all people of all nationalities here.

Anyways, there is a new hull of FFG sitting in Jiangnan shipyard. Not sure whether it is the rumored 054A, I'll let you guys be the judge of that.
