Type 076 LHD/LHA discussion

not sure if we should be over examining this photo for the Type 076

there is certainly a need and scope for a warship like the Type 076 LHA which can act as a drone carrier

and it would greatly complement the Type 071 LPD + Type 075 LHD + Type 076 LHA

I guess we have to wait maybe 2023?

CSSC tipping off that 708th institute and Jiangnan involved in building Type 076

The hinting by CSSC Jiangnan on the 076 itself is fine, but... why are there MiG-29Ks onboard the 076, instead of some random Chinese drones as placeholders? Plus, using the same island as the 003 Fujian as well...

Is that you, 战忽局?

Besides, having the first ever 3-4 units of the 076-class LHD being built at the same time looks like a pretty huge stretch, unless the PLAN is absolutely confident of the capabilities and performances of the EMALS on Fujian (among many other things).

(Also @tphuang if you don't mind, I would like to cross-post the screenshot by the @梁无咎 guy in the China‘s Defense/Military Breaking News Thread.)
