China’s electric car scientists create powerful electromagnetic catapult for aircraft carriers
Chinese scientists have created an electromagnetic catapult for aircraft carriers using technology similar to electric vehicles
The system can launch a plane from zero to 70 metres per second in 2.1 seconds, and at a lower cost to traditional catapults

USN and PLAN VLS count changes between 2023-2026.
The US remains a military shipbuilding giant by commissioning 1 Zumwalt and 10 Burke in 4 years with 1040 new VLS cells
Yet the rapid decommissioning of Ticos negates these newly added cells and results in negative growth

China Builds World’s First Dedicated Drone Carrier
China has built the world's first dedicated drone carrier. The ship has not been reported however and many of the circumstances surrounding it remain a mystery.
Hidden away in a shipyard on the Yangtze, far upriver from the major yards at Shanghai, is a new aircraft carrier. It’s China’s fourth, a ship whose mere existence has not been reported before. Only China can build an aircraft carrier in relative secrecy.
This ship, launched in December 2022 but not reported until now, is surrounded by mystery. Naval News, together with J. Michael Dahm, Senior Resident Fellow at the Mitchell Institute, have been analyzing it.
