Thanks for your patience on this. China’s People’s Liberation Army Navy, or PLAN, has come a long way in 20 years. Back in the early 2000's it was more of a brown-water navy that mostly kept close to its own shores and boasted just one refurbished Soviet hull as an aircraft carrier. Now, things are different. The PLAN recently launched their first catapult-equipped super carrier, the Fujian, displacing about 80,000 tons and boasting three electromagnetic aircraft launch system catapults, or EMALS. This rivals USS Gerald R Ford with a displacement of 100,000 tons and four EMALS. This new capability, combined with aircraft like the J-15, J-35, KJ-600, and GJ-11, give China a legitimate carrier air wing. But that isn’t all, they could also be working on a nuclear carrier, something only the US and France currently operate. There is also the Type 076 that has appeared with what looks like an EMALS tailored for drones, making this amphibious assault ship something of a drone carrier. In this video, we break it all down and cover what pitfalls China could face and what the US is, or at least should be, concerned about. 00:00 - Intro 01:45 - Ad Read 03:50 - Why China Builds Carriers 07:50 - The Fujian - China’s First Supercarrier 12:23 - Going Nuclear? 14:05 - Type 076 Drone Carrier? 17:05 - China’s Strategy and US Concerns 20:45 - Channel Updates Written by: Kyle Gunn Edited by: Savvy Task & Purpose is a military news and culture-oriented channel.
