in the current application, everyone has always been curious about how far my country has come from the united states after such a long period of hard work. in fact, although china's technological progress has more advantages, there is still a gap between china and other countries in technology. the most important point is the performance gap. the comparison of the performance of the latest destroyer engines between the united states and china has also made everyone pay more attention to technological development again.

so, what are china’s advantages at present?

in the previous development, early large warships used steam engines, and small and medium-sized ships preferred diesel engines. diesel engines are very common on frigates of about 2,000 to 3,500 tons, and are also a relatively conventional application. however, with subsequent development, the requirements on ships are higher, and these are obviously not met. in addition, the warships are getting bigger and bigger, which also means that the speed requirements are starting to get higher. large ships over 4,000 tons basically use gas turbines. although the fuel consumption is relatively high, the high power and high speed are fully able to meet the needs of modern military applications.
