chinas' ships look way cooker than our ships....theyre sharp looking...like a knife and the whole thing is the same color they shouldve painted it grey

Looks like they took the tour boat in front and repainted it in gray.

Yo bud u might wanna edit your post and make em lengths taken me forever and im on a fast connection. Betta do it b4 a mod gets here they get angry. Ahh i thought i heard sometin

It's a really neat looking ship. I like the angular design of it. To bad that logo on the first pic is overtop of the front part of the ship. Is there anything you can tell us about this ship? I don't know that much about ships.. especially chinese ones.

Yeah the pics are huge take it from me make em smaller or the mods wil do it

Yes, those were waaay too big. Replaced with links. Sorry for the dial-up users who wanted to read this!

the front part of 2208

don't know more detail.

Well I did a bit of searching to see what I could find. Here is one link I have so far:

www.pakistanidefenceforum.com...

From what I read in there. It seems to be a catamaran style hull and uses a hydro jet propulsion as opposed to a prop. It was also stated that with it's caramaran hull, it would be good for high speed intersepts in coastal / smooth waters. So perhaps it could be a fast attack/partol boat. It's hard to say. Maybe it is a missile ship, I don't really know.

I'll look around for more info again later.

So the Chinese are taking tour boats and converting them to military ones. Interesting. Do they plan on acting as a tour boat of the Coast of Taiwan and attacking the island or something?

Please don't post photos/images without comment. Post only a link to larger images so our dial-up users don't have to wait for them to load just to review the thread and so the formatting of the page is not affected.

Thanks,

Thats what I was wondering? Are the supposedly disguising missle ships as tour ones? The pic I see show 2 navy ships that are obviously navy ships, and another ship/boat that looks like a tour boat, and I dont see how it could be a missle boat???
