Hull is starseed. Propulsion is known to cause wake in excess of 400 meters.

What is starseed? The 400 meter wake, is it 400 meters high, 400 meters wide, or 400 meters long?

Known capability: to traverse land as giant supertank. It is literally Chinese army unit on water...

Giant supertank. That sounds formidable. How does it move on land? Does it have tracks? Is it a hovercraft?

Starseed is a material of unknown composition that is lighter than steel and that does not melt under nuclear heat...

The wake is 400m wide.

It's hovering.

It's hovering but leaves a wake? Yeah OK.

a reply to: Zaphod58

both hovercraft and WIG [ wing in ground ] craft leave a wake over water

but having said that - the OP is a grade 2 walt

Starseed is a material of unknown composition

yeah ok , stick a fork in ya, youre done

So just to get this straight it hovers but is a catamaran, its a ship but also a tank. Its hull is made of a material that nobody knows about and it's carrying air to surface missiles despite it being on the surface, not the air.

Sounds plausible to me.

China can cross the Pacific faster than any other Navy.



If this is all true.










Is he a native English speaker? Perhaps he got his idioms mixed up and meant surface to air. This picture of one of the craft firing would seem to indicate so.
