The 076 stands out with its visible launch system, which resembles the electromagnetic launchers installed on China’s newest aircraft carrier, the CNS Fujian. This technology could enable the launch of aircraft, including unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), making the 076 a hybrid between a traditional amphibious assault ship and a mini-carrier.
While the specific role of the 076 remains unclear, experts suggest it could play a key role in integrating UAVs into maritime operations. Its rapid construction also highlights China’s shipbuilding capabilities.
