China's 3rd aircraft carrier and 1st LHD begins sea trials.

I literally gave you Chinese sources which called the 075 a "amphibious assault ship." Even the video you posted, from the respected DS北风, calls it an amphibious assault ship. I have no idea why you are so stubborn and in opposition of common sense.

Regarding the Japanese Izumo class, it is still basically an amphibious assault ship. The truth is just because it can carry STOVL aircraft does not make it an aircraft carrier, at least in the conventional sense. The US "America" class will also carry STOVL F-35Bs, but that does not make it an aircraft carrier ... indeed its actual designation is "amphibious assault ship." Only the Ford class (and its predecessors) are considered aircraft carriers per consensus.
ok go live in your retard wet dream/ fantasy world, these are not reliable source
I first showed him American sources that considered the 075 a LHD/Amphibious Assault Ship. He said the USN and the PLAN have a differing definition of what constitutes an aircraft carrier. Then I showed him Chinese sources which say the exact same things and he still refuses to budge. Really goes to show how stubborn this guy is :hitwall:.

LHD is a kind of aircraft carrier. Likewise, helicopter is a kind of aircraft. The logic is very easy to understand.

The reason Type 071 is not considered an aircraft carrier is because it does not carry a full squadron of aircraft minimum 12.

you stubborn, missions of aircraft carrier is different (power projection) and missions for LHD is to support and deploy troops and army equipment on to the enemy shores, you paranoid

By this stupid broad classification, we can also say a LHD is a kind of object ... therefore why don't we just call the 075 an "object" instead? :crazy::hitwall:
 
It is an object carrier but more specifically it is an aircraft carrier.
No mission for both ships are different, LHD is for support and deploying troops/army equipment on the enemy shores whereas Aircraft carrier have the mission of power projection, to a destruction of enemy naval/air and ground assets from stand off ranges, you stubborn

LHD can also be used for striking enemy ships and land targets. Italy's newest carrier is an LHD. LHD is more flexible than traditional carrier designs.

shut up, but china currently lack F-35B Like V/STOL jet, so type-75 is currently LHD which ground operation not have power projection capability
Let's just stop responding to the Russian fanboy on this subject ... he is not going to change his mind. We are just wasting time on him.
 
That's an LHD and China may be building another AC similar to the 1st & 2nd one.

I have heard here in this forum that China will be shifting some Naval assets to Arabian sea that will include:

1 Aircraft Carrier
1 LHD
1 LPD
2 Destroyers
2 Frigates
2 Submarines

This will help protect its OBOR going through the sea routes in the Indian Ocean.

I doubt there will be another AC like Shandong AC.
Doesn't make sense since China is building 003 with catapult now.
What's point to build another skipjump AC?
