  Hey people,
  
  I just bumped into these sites... have a look...
  
  Isn't this very similar to La Fayette? I wonder if the French have any parts in designing this new FFG for China?

  Can anyone convince me that the Chinese did not get any help from the French... I wonder what advantage the Taiwanese Kang Ding will have now if any.
  
  Next.....
  
  Chinese's attempts at a Aegis DDG copy?

  They Chinese have been trying out a radar system that is something like the Aegis system for sometime already...sometime around 1998 i think not too sure.
