What a absolute monster

A fast tanker
Very good asset to have
Easily sustain a carrier strike group at sea for staging
I would think they have built 2 units after the 003 is ready build another two optimised Type 901A bit heavier tonnage for CV-18
They should also form a VERTRP rotary wing squadron for these units
Highly trained pilots for high cross wind operations
Z8C would be perfect two on each tanker
Even they could triple up if they built 3 hangers
But I love naval helicopters surely 2 is enough

Yes. And more. The Type 901 isn't tied with carriers alone. They are also used with surface groups of consisting only of destroyers and frigates. For example, just recently earlier this month, a task group consisting of two destroyers and two frigates went through the Miyako Straits into the Philippine Sea and went around it. The group is supplied with a Type 901.

Absolutely beautiful
But no helicopters
Twin hangers and 3 other openings for rotary UAV but still nothing
A dedicated VERTREP helicopter squadron made up of the new Z8C should be stationed on board 24/7
