China's navy commissions new-generation frigate as competition rises with US and others

China already has the world's largest navy in terms of number of hulls, although its technology is sometimes seen as lagging. Its largest competitor, the U.S., has warned its Navy could be outnumbered and has called for a building program as well as reforms to put damaged ships into action sooner.
The first Type 054B frigate, christened the Luohe, was commissioned Wednesday in Qingdao, a port city in northern China where the PLAN’s northern fleet is based.
Recent wargames have shown China would lose many more vessels in a simulated clash with the U.S., but would be able to absorb the losses and continue fighting.

Number One: Homer Simpson, for your continuing and baffling desecration of our beloved sacred parchment, you are hereby banished from the stonecutters forever. And as a final humiliation, you must walk home naked, dragging behind you the Stone of Shame.
[someone snaps a metal collar around his neck]
[he starts to walk out when everyone gasps and points]
Hibbert: The mark!
Homer: Oh, that. It's just a birthmark. And I'll thank you not to stare!
Moe: He's the Chosen One!
[everyone bows low before him]
Number One: You are the Chosen One whom the sacred parchment prophesied would lead us to glory! Now to the top of Mount Springfield for the coronation! Remove the Stone of Shame.
Homer: Woo hoo!
Number One: Attach the Stone of Triumph!
Homer: B'oh!
Everyone: Yay! [they all run off]
[Homer strains like anything with the new larger stone]
