Tier VIII Destroyer

Pan-Asia

Datong

A hypothetical destroyer design with experimental 100 mm dual-purpose guns as the main battery. Quadruple-gun 100 mm BL-127 mounts were under development in the U.S.S.R. in the late 1940s. One of the Project 30-bis destroyers under construction at that time could have served as a testbed for the prospective guns. Later, in the second half of the 1950s, the ship could have been transferred to the PRC.
