Description

      The Type 071 are amphibious warfare ships of the People's Republic of China's People's Liberation Army Navy.

Built by the Shanghai-based Hudong Shipyard, the ship is equipped with a 76 mm gun and 4 × 30 mm CIWS for self-defense. The ship significantly improves the PLA Navy’s sea-lift and power projection capabilities.
