As buyers gather from around the world looking to upgrade their navies, shipbuilders from different countries are vying for business.
China, Italy and Turkey are all looking to equip the navies of the future.

Qatar is always on top much love
Because Qatar sit on oil
@GIVE AWAY that’s why God hates lindos
@PRIME what are lindos
@FOURTH RIGHT lindos is a word use to describe people who worship cows and the other 300M animal gods they worship
Pakistan army is more powerful than any other country
Nice joke 😂. Actually it’s at 11th Number.
1.USA
2.Russia
3.China
4. India
5.Japan
@Sandeep Kumar Russia can be dropped down at 3rd after it’s below par performance in Ukraine
@Sang Tonsing More like Russia holded back a lot. Winner is obvious but stupid leaders will fight for their ego until everything turn into dust.
Drones are the future
How about drone ships and subs
@354sd They already exist. Next naval conflict we will see reports of ships being blown up by torpedo drones and submarine drones.
Hala
CHINESE cheap ships , this statement is bad for Marketing
Lindu ships are like speed boats
China is more advanced now… countries underestimating others always makes them fall behind, because they think they have the best but with that kind of mentality they cannot aim for making it better.
Australia should buy some – Ours a very expensive and it takes 20 years to build even 1. To much talk not enough action.
In another 2 years and a lot of consultation they will know what side they should put the steering wheel on.🙃
Australia ship takes 20 years to build and 2 seconds to sink it
@Matt Gummerson mostly because of cheap labour and raw materials they are cheaper
@Vasili S the intellectual property that goes into them is the most expensive part. The systems on a US ship are far superior to Turkeys for example
@Matt Gummerson Thats factually incorrect and a pretty stupid argument to make.
Building a ship in Turkey is cheaper becajse of the cheaper labour and raw materials there. They are more competitive in every single field. This goes for China as well. The cheaper price doesn’t say a single thing about quality. It could but its not perse.
Now when it comes to Turkish ships vs American ones it would be hard to say which is superior.
The Turkish Atmaca anti ship missle is newer and has bigger range and lethality than the newest peer of America the Harpoon ASM. America operates destroyers which Turkey does not. Turkey has a brand new drone carrier that nobody in the world has so they both have good points. America is not superior anymore nor will ever be again. Pax americana is over.
Turkey has its own Railgun technology. Before your going to say they stole it, they are only 1 in 3 nations that have proven railgun technology verified by independant defense experts. America and the UK being first and China second while Turkey comes in 3rd but has 3 working prototypes. The Sahi block 209, Tufan and another one we forgot. Turkey was the first country in the world to shoot down a Chinese Wing Loong drone belonging to warlord Haftar in Libya with laserweaponry out doing everyone in battle testing their tech. So don’t be arrogant. Knowledge does not belong to the US alone anymore nor will we allow it.
We will however allow the US to be destroyed and we will dismantle the US power by banning the petrodollar soon and making dollars worthless papers that will be dumped worldwide. The worlds biggest commodity (oil) will NOT be traded in dollars ever again and your economic will be taken down soon.
@The Islamic Journey Turkish ships are that good that no other country wants to buy them 😂 you’re either a child or have severe learning difficulties
Will it pass sea trial in south china sea? 🌊 …
With the Pax Americana ending and the current war and the other wars that will come after it this sort of exibitions will become more and more common
Ending of Pax Americana lol
For something that’s supposedly ending, Putin managed to not only reinvigorate it but to reinforce it so much that in the UN General Assembly voted against this aggression in almost complete unanimity. There’s more to say but if you are hoping to see the end of the American domination, you’ll wait quite a while. America strengthened their influence in Europe, and absolutely nobody has the money, resources and geopolitical location to match their sea, land and air dominance.
Finally no more Opium wars. Now it is a reviving junction of mass business operations.
Get all the countries to load up on AI operated military hardware!
Leave it to the cultures that don’t value human life like secular side of United States, the Chinese, the Indian
Cheap and war ships should never be used in the same sentence. 🤔
Defense fair?😝 How come they have warships in a defense fair? Why not rename it to War-fair?
Weapons spend 99% of their lifetime on a shelf. Only fools wish to see them deployed.
The two World Wars have convinced modern democracies that they need to maintain defense materiel and forces in order to maintain a modicum of global stability.
@Kyle Smith Hmm there seems to be more than necessary amount of fools…
Are those chinese cheap ships *sanctions-proof* ?
Love Qatar from Kashmir
They should all focus on feeding their citizens because surely you cannot use these warships to do farming and so on
west won’t even leave us to farm peacefully. we should heavily invest in WMD education than westing our money on some old and useless pieces of hardware.
where are the russian exhibits? i wanna see a russian nuclear powered frigate!
👍
Proud see Bangladesh
I’m proud of my mother land 🇧🇩🇧🇩
👍
Killing is my business and business is good.
Humans are good at killing and dying. I expect the species to be essentially become extinct this century.
Let’s see if Putin starts Armageddon sooner via first strike nukes attacks.
Stay tuned boys.
Bangladesh buys war ships! this world never seizes to wonder
🇧🇩💚🇹🇷👈
I love you Qatar from Turkey ❤
Me too from Bangladesh❤
Cheap is right
It looks like America 🇺🇸 Britain 🇬🇧 is falling behind
You fight with your own arrow 🏹 than exported weapons.
Many commenting here calling Chinese products cheap, but can they match with what china have or capable of??
That’s why the world need peace; Warlords want wars to increase sale of weapons. We should focus in developing humanity to avoid waste of buying weapons for destruction of humanity.
Since Chinese labors are more expensive than Turkish Turkey will soon gain more market.
Gotta wonder why Bangladesh have a defence, after all its a dirt poor country and all of it is underwater once sea level rises a few feet
To bully their own population.
Don’t hold your breath while you are waiting for the seas to rise. Greta says one thing, but Saudi has invested billions into The Maldives. They aren’t expecting them to sink.
Edited from “Season to rise” to “Seas to rise” Tryped on phone “Kin Spieilchick!”
@COIcultist, yes look for what Saudi invest in etc to make a prediction
Just look at their own country, its at the brink of bankrupcy cuz of extreme spending and oil will be less and less sold…
Whenever the Saudi invest in doesnt matter but dirty money, they know noting but the own luxury and desert, oil has given them…
They got no clue what is smart to invest in and what not.
@cookie Cola Jesus wept, you are the Nadia Comăneci of mental gymnastics to come up with that The Saudi’s will invest in useless property just to promote an illusion? Barack Obama has not only bought a house at Martha’s Vineyard on the US East coast, but a beachside property in Hawaii that was featured in Magnum PI as Robyn’s Nest. Do you think Barack has perfect faith in man’s future actions, or he has just been promoting BS for years?
Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
War is good
Bangladesh ❤️🇧🇩
Proud and love my motherland Bangladesh more then anything else ❤️
Turkey is rising military power in muslim countries
🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
