At the moment, absolutely no country in the world can build and launch new naval combat fleets as big scale and fast as PRC. New warships of Chinese navy are pouring into the water now like dropping dumpling into boiling hotpot 下水饺:





latest concept is to have ships and carrier (some un-maned) that launches all sorts of missiles rapidly, for smaller ships, 100 missiles per min, for larger ship 1000 missile per min.
Missiles from ships are these days launched vertically from tubes with a hatch opening on the ship deck, it pops open and pop up a missile into the air. The missile can be anti-aircraft, anti-ship, anti-missile, anti-satellites, anti-submarine or land-targeting. Satellites or high flying AWAC type radar planes track positions of moving targets.



The concept does not worry counter attack sinking the floating missile base, as it could be un-man vessel, or already quite empty vessel within a min into very fast striking action, there isn't much impact nor tactical value to try to sink them.
