China has the Type 057X coming soon? A 9,000 ton multi-role destroyer?

🇨🇳China’s DDGX is coming. Both Jiangnan and Dalian shipyard have stopped producing Type 055 and 052D destroyers mysteriously. Why? Because rumours said both shipyards are preparing to launch a brand new 9000-ton Multi-Role Destroyer, with the code name Type 057X https://t.co/kzdIRczoLU
