PLAN Fleet supply vessels

Type-901 at Qingdao... All images are high-resolution.

 

What a absolute monster

 

Ship-spotting... All images are high-resolution.

 

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
