In recent days, news has been circulating on the Internet about the start of the construction of the Type 076 UAV aircraft carrier. The author also went to the relevant Internet to search for relevant information. However, from the known information, it is difficult to determine whether it is 076 or not. But one thing is certain, it's definitely not 075, why, because 075 has been being built in Hudong, and it hasn't stopped.
Moreover, the latest satellite images show that the hull inside the dry dock is significantly larger than that of the 075. According to the size data measured on the Internet, the waterline alone has reached more than 240 meters, so the length of the deck may reach a terrifying 260 meters after it is built. The width of the waterline is 33 according to the satellite image5 meters. Then the final width of the deck should also be at least 40 meters. According to this size, the full load displacement is not 55,000 tons. More than the displacement of some medium aircraft carriers in the world.
And if the electromagnetic catapult system is installed, then it is basically a standard medium-sized aircraft carrier, and it also has its own amphibious combat function. In addition to the vertical landing aircraft under development by the Chengfei Group, such a warship that integrates UAV swarms, manned fighters, and amphibious warfare functions can basically carry out effective deterrence in all regions of the world except the United States. It can be used against the air, on the ground, and on landing, and it can be said that it is full of combat effectiveness. AI assistant creation season
