The Fujian is China’s third aircraft carrier after the Liaoning and the Shandong vessels and is the Chinese navy’s largest-ever ship
Named after Fujian province
It’s the first of the Type 003 class (NATO/OSD Fujian-class CV)
It is China's first CATOBAR (“Catapult Assisted Take-Off Barrier Arrested Recovery") aircraft carrier with a fully indigenous design, an integrated propulsion system and three electromagnetic catapults, unlike the ski-jump flight decks of the previous Chinese aircraft carriers.
