Jul 19, 2020 · And for the 076 he mentioned, there's something interesting for 施佬, looks like these are from a group chat he's in: View attachment 61902 View attachment 61903 He says 076 solves the problem that China doesn't have F35B with a unique solution, and "you will understand once you see it".

Jul 19, 2020 · IMO, type 071, 075 and 076 each play a not so slightly different roles in an amphibious assault. Type 071 has 4 LCAC, a hangar for 2 Z8 helicopter (plus 2 more on landing deck if needed). The 4 LCAC would be key asset to deliver non-amphibious tanks like type 96 and type 15. The ship can also launch several dozen amphibious tanks and IFVs.

Jul 19, 2020 · If EM cats are fitted to 076 (and fairly quickly it seems like based on the RFP that is now a safe speculative consensus) I don't think it will be there on 076 as a piece of "test hardware" but rather as an equally key system to 076's intended various roles as the EM cat would be on 003.

Jul 19, 2020 · What does this have anything to do with the type 076 and it's design. You keep posting these fictional light carrier designs which don't at all add anything to the Type 076 conversation. The 076's Straight deck is obvious now and these fictional what-if, and how you would design a carrier deck have no relation with the 076's development.

Jul 19, 2020 · Type 076 LHA can equal the playing field in someway by using the EMALS GJ-11 UCAVS if J-35 can somehow manage to launch and land then we are talking a significant increase in capability over the America Class

Jul 19, 2020 · The simplest, cheapest and most reliable solution is to take the existing carrier catapult and shorten it. So it can handle the frame power, but how much power is supplied to a Type-076 catapult is another question. But more important is that a shorter catapult results in a lower takeoff speed for a given weight and acceleration.

Jul 19, 2020 · Some latest information regarding this Type 076 LHA : The source in China mentioned that Type-076 will be one hell of a LHA. The ship will has a displacement of over 60,000 or more tonnes, the largest LHA in the world, …

Jul 19, 2020 · I don't expect to see any more Type 076 LHA for a few years because it is a lot more advanced than the Type 075 LHD plus the twin islands will create local wind dynamics and cross winds will create new operating procedures for the rotary wing pilots and UCAVS

Jul 19, 2020 · So I think a Type-076 with amphibious assault as its primary mission is 5-10 years ahead of its time. In comparison, I think a Type-076 which emphasises air/sea control with unmanned drones makes sense now. There is a new operating paradigm due to the combination of: 1. EMALs which is simple in comparison to steam catapults 2.

Jul 19, 2020 · If the stats given by him are anywhere close to actual, that means outside of proper CVs, the 076 would be the largest flatdeck in the world. 076's alleged overall length of 253 meters is slightly shorter than America's 257 meters, but having an alleged beam of 45 meters could be a first for all non-proper CV flatdecks in the world.
