The reason for the distribution of the three short range AA missiles (two at the back end of the ship, one over the main bridge), is because these are the optimal positions. 360 degrees coverage and at the same time protection from sea spray when launching at high seas. The ciws guns are less affected, so they have the usual distribution. Overall, a most impressive ship.

So you will Not be landing J-15Ts on that ship, but instead drone aircraft. Why??? Again, look at that Hole I mention...It LOOKS like the shape of a "Barrier System" that USN uses on Their A/C (aircraft carrier) FD! It is used in case of some sort of emergency of the plane, where it will "Crash into the Barrier"...a series of vertical straps held UP by the craning of the barrier. This would make More sense, because you Don't want to keep "Crashing" an a-c (aircraft) into a barrier all the time. But for a drone, it COULD be fixed ~rapidly~ (??). As for the USN barrier system, sure it would damage the a-c, but the pilot would survive with assistance of FD crews. So I am thinking the catapult will be for ....... DRONES!!! Not manned a-c.

The 076 amphibious assault ship can provide a base for the Marine Corps to move forward in the aircraft carrier formation, and can also eject unmanned early warning aircraft, unmanned attack aircraft, and even unmanned tankers.

Different EM catapult system design, or better design. The US uses high Voltage AC power for their catapults which requires a lot of power generation at one time.

The PLAN needs 4 Supercarriers and at least 8 of these type 076 class ships. That would give them 3-4 carriers available at anyone time. Considering the USN only had 4-5 modern carriers that can operate F-35's, USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70), USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72), USS George Washington (CVN-73), USS Gerald R Ford and (CVN-78), and USS America (LHA-6), USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) is unknown, potentially can, potentially cannot, that would give the PLAN an advantage as the USN cannot concentrate all of its available carriers in a single theatre.

This may be my favorite carrier design ever. Yes, it’s not the biggest, but I just love the look. Love the straight rectangular shape. 🇨🇳 LOOK AT THAT 01:44. Beautiful!!!

[@yumingzhao5577]

It was a dark day for the folks in Sichuan, they say over there, because this 076 is not a full nuclear powered aircraft carrier, according to recent posts in some Chinese social media.

[@MrBdoleagle]

It is also noteworthy that Sichuan received a lot of greetings especially from neighbor provinces. Their chances to have nuclear AC remain 😂🎉

[@bixudiwon6363]

they don't know why? Sichuan was supporting Boxilai and president Xi remembered it.

You can clearly see the influence of the British twin island design, same with Italy and their new Trieste.

[@johnnyzhao4985]

Wow congrats 🎉

[@CyberPanda-yl1db]

Continuous innovation.

[@rolandxor179]

I don't understand why they don't use an angled deck design if they will operate fixed wing aircraft ? This is asking for catastrophic accidents if they fail to catch the wire.

[@stewiesaidthat]

You are under the impression that planes will return to the carrier.

[@ex0duzz]

If they miss they just power through and take off and try again like what everyone else does for flattops.

[@stewiesaidthat]

@ex0duzz The angled design creates a separate runway for catching planes. You can catch the plane and move it off to the side and reset for the next plane. Where are you going to park the plane so it's out of the way? This is more like a helicopter/VTOL ship than a true aircraft carrier conducting continuous operations.

四川舰考虑的是多功能，多种组合的任务，是个多面手。在航母编队里，是作为配角角色，不需要持续出动飞机作战，那是航母去考虑的问题。制空作战时，配合航母放飞无人攻击机；对岛登陆时起降武装直升机、运输直升机和气垫床登陆艇，旁边航母来制空；单独处理低烈度任务时，带几架J-15T就可以处理拦截任务，费用比航母低很多。

PLA is smart enough not to dump defense money into complex tiltrotor VTOL aircraft like the U.S. V-22 Osprey.

[@jisui4048]

根据对升降机还有宣传图的分析，搭载的很有可能不是固定翼而是某型无人机，我更倾向于全长电弹是为了给航母做备份，以达到能运作固定翼的目的，起降战斗机应该不是常态，毕竟这是两栖舰，坞舱主要还是要用来放装甲车和人员弹药这些，但是说真的两攻上全长电弹，这个真的太夸张了，没下水之前我都在猜会不会缩短一点方便无人机同时起降

[@AhmadHermi]

I am not a China fanboy. My country is one of the country that have overlapping claim in S.C.S. But I have to admit I am agreeing with Type 076 design as an amphibious/drone carrier. I guarantee you US will also develop their own LHD/ Drone carrier after this.

[@sinocare]

Very objective and factual presentation of 076, particularly like your comments about UK’s half dead aircraft carriers. We should credit to UK that invented many of the technologies and techniques vital to the carrier and its operation today. Happy new year.

Launch usually means it's in water. However, I guess for the China fans out there, this is close enough.

When are they going to Taiwan?

[@danwelterweight4137]

Next decade by the late 2030s. China will be so strong then, nobody even the US will dare to oppose it.

[@larsnystrom6698]

When the Taiwanese allows the US to provoke them into that! But there's one step before that: a blocade of Taiwan. It's of course impossible for China to accept an American base on Taiwan. So, the US can always force China into doing something. Or China could reciprocate with a Cuba-crises 🙂
