PLA Navy news, pics and videos

Video was from an award ceremony 6 months ago:

At around 31:00

I did not notice anything new from the narration, it's mostly about the world leading IEPS development which we already heard. It mentioned their development on EM launch systems is as advanced as the world's leading country, and has a number of "world's first" technology, but did not give any detail beyond that.

The video clips may contain something interesting, perhaps someone here can help identify them? I wonder if the railgun shot video was actually from a Chinese test (as opposed to some library footage CCTV put in)? The video of flywheel energy release was certainly from a Chinese device.

I'm most curious about what the giant blue device is. The narration suggest it is some sort of EM launcher, but the 'shell' is way too big for a railgun, and the launch speed doesn't seem that fast. I guess it could be an electromagnetic torpedo launcher.

You mean this?


I would guess it is IEPS

This allegedly is a documentary on the breakthroughs in EMAL, all-electric propulsion, and EM railgun . Can anyone confirm and translate this? Does anyone have a link to the video?

I think @Hendrik_2000 has posted this photo some time ago.

Note, the documentary is a TV program from January 2017 "2016 Scientific Achievement" on CCTV.
