3D-Modell

A previously unknown corvette- or light frigate-sized surface combatant with an entirely new configuration has emerged at a Chinese shipyard near the northern city of Dalian, Liaoning Province, Related imagery of the stealthy new warship design circulated first on Chinese social media yesterday, November 22/2023. The new corvette so far has not received a publicly known designation. Based on an image from the launch of its program,
The ship apparently serves as a “comprehensive testing platform”. Such a role may include trials of novel weapon systems, sensors and propulsion. A range of novel or significantly modified subsystems are visible in the various images of the ship circulated on Chinese social media. This includes a stealthy main gun, a compact VLS and a signature-optimized derivative of the HQ-10 short range air defence missile system. We called Type 057 corvette. The class name it's a mistery :-) Druckfertige: Nein
