Type 901 replenishment ship
The Type 901 (NATO reporting name : Fuyu -class,[citation needed ] also known as Hulunhu -class) is a class of fast combat support ship of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy .[ 6]
Design
The Type 901 is estimated to have a 45,000 ton displacement[ 3] and a beam of 31.5 metres.[ 6] The ship is powered by four QC280 gas turbines, each delivering 28 MW, for maximum speed of about 25 kt; the speed is necessary to keep up with carriers.[ 3] The Type 901 is more than twice the size of the preceding Type 903A and significantly faster.[ 3] [ 7]
The Type 901 appears to be designed with similar missions to the Supply -class fast combat support ship [ 8] which is to keep large surface action groups supplied.
