Why?
Because, so far, all imagery is fan-art. Previously, we’ve seen models appear at some point. Besides, I think they will first work out how to use the three LPDs.

The first picture is a drawing of an export LHD that CSOC were offering at some recent naval expos. Very mistral esque yes?
The other two are fan art.
Knew I’d seen that last picture before somewhere:

The export LHD displaces 22,000 tons.

The PLAN are also said to be pursuing a much larger, wasp weight class LHD or LHA, in the 40,000 ton range. The “rumour designation” of this PLAN LHA/D is “075” at the moment. 081 is the prefix for a class of minesweepers in service, I believe.

Is that something official, or a mere fan-art design? (I don´t think I´ve seen anything official in this respect, not on CDF at least)

Turkey is said to be interested in the Chinese LHD. Yet, personally I think the Spanish BPE would be far better suited. Of course I am referring to capabilities not price.
