China released new images of the next-generation Fujian aircraft carrier on January 2, 2024, the country’s first carrier with electromagnetic plane launch technology. A successor to the Liaoning and the Shandong carriers, the Fujian featured on Chinese state media’s evening newscast for the first time since April 2023.
