What are the other specifications ? i mean' how much Marines it can carry (with full capacity of Helicopters). ? is there any hospital inside there ? How many boats, Hovercraft's ? Or it's only function is of "helicopter carrier" ?

Or we have to wait for such info ?

@beijingwalker , @Kiss_of_the_Dragon .. Sir !

There is no official specifications until launching time.
But from Information we get, China's Type 075 LHD would be in the same class and size with Wasp LHD.

So, maybe you can use Wasp LHD specs as reference for Type 075 LHD

I have no clue, but I think Pakistan should get one of this to defend Gwadar port :D

China Type 075 LHD is not Defensive weapon. It's for Offensive one.

香港《南华早报》3月29日文章,原题:消息人士称,中国在建造海军最大的两栖攻击舰 消息人士称,中国已开始建造新一代的大型两栖攻击舰,它将进一步提升解放军海军的力量。
  军方消息人士说,075型直升机船坞登陆舰目前正由上海一家造船公司建造。这种两栖攻击舰远大于先前为解放军海军建造的同类舰只。075型可充当航母,军事专家说它将使中国海军能起飞各种型号的直升机,对军舰、敌方地面部队、东海或南海的潜艇发起攻击。
  引进该舰适逢北京愈加重视海军之际。沪东中华造船有限公司表示,中国海军司令员沈金龙周日造访该公司。接近海军的消息人士说,沈金龙的视察证实了新一代两栖攻击舰在建的消息。075型建成还需两年。首艘舰可能最早2019年下水,2020年全面服役。
  据媒体报道和军方消息人士透露,中国首艘国产航母001A型拟于4月23日(解放军海军成立68周年)下水。这是中国增强海军力量计划的一部分。
  《南华早报》本月较早前援引军方消息人士的话称,为协助保护中国日益增加的海外利益,解放军计划将海军陆战队规模从约2万扩员到10万。001A型航母和075型两栖攻击舰的建造进一步证明,海军陆战队和海军将在解放军作战中扮演日益重要的角色。
  澳门军事观察家黄东说,建造075型两栖攻击舰将有助于中国海军舰队在使用直升机方面匹敌美国。075型大于之前的两栖攻击舰,大小与美国最大的“黄蜂”级两栖攻击舰相当,“中国有很多大型军舰,但由于缺少大型直升机船坞舰,垂直着陆能力仍欠缺。075型的下水将使中国海军成为仅次于美国海军的世界第二强海军。”▲(陈俊安译)
 
We need Stovl

What are the rumors going around?

Also, I read somewhere in Chinese media some navy expert talking that China doesn't have a need for stovl, and that it would be a huge financially draining exercise.

I kind of agree.

Only US has made good stovl fighters, and it has had to spend a HUGE amount of money on it. Plus, US has had a tremendous experience in aviation.

Comparatively China is a newcomer which is yet to produce a good jet engine, still has limited experience in designing planes.

Please don't mind and be mad on me for these observations.

I am awaiting your response as to what rumors are there this stovl fighter.

Yes, STOVl is under development. We are ambitious, we don't walk through our life.

What's the purpose of having LHD if you don't have a plan on STOVL?

Seems you forget Harrier?!
 
Under development. You hit the point!


Any more information ??

From what I know - and I know it's quite limited - it sounded more like a propulsion-research program only than true development of an operational VSTOL-type.
Will it be again at CAC??
