China's Newest Aircraft Carrier 'Fujian' Enters Service | A New Era for its Navy

Описание: China has officially commissioned the Fujian, its third and most advanced aircraft carrier, marking a major milestone in its military modernization. Watch as China's navy welcomes the 'Fujian' (Type 003) into active service.

The Fujian is China's first domestically designed carrier equipped with a state-of-the-art electromagnetic catapult system (EMALS), a technology previously only deployed by the US. This new system allows the carrier to launch a new generation of aircraft, including J-35 stealth fighters and KJ-600 early warning planes, with heavier payloads and more fuel.

This development signals a new era for the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) as it transitions into a true "blue-water navy," expanding its power projection capabilities far into the Pacific.
