| [Twitter] Fire Breaks Out On China's Massive New Type 075 Amphibious Assault Ship. The blaze struck while the ship was tied up to the pier at Hudong Zhonghua Shipbuilding in Shanghai. See link for video
It is unclear how much damage has been done to the amphibious assault ship at this time, although it appears the fire emanated from, or at least involved, its well deck. A well deck is a floodable garage-like space that is used on amphibious assault ships for launching and recovering ship-to-shore transport boats and hovercraft, as well as amphibious fighting vehicles. Recent satellite images from Hudong;Zhonghua Shipyard, #Shanghai, #China show the second PLAN type 075 amphibious assault vessel in docks awaiting a coat of paint on its deck as speculations for its launch date begin emerging pic.twitter.com/NLGUBTHE8T — d-atis☠️ (@detresfa_) April 10, 2020 |
