China's version of USN's lighting carriers

[proelite]

Since China lacks VOTL, a conventional CATOBAR carrier would fit the role that the USN's lighting carriers occupy. Such a class of ship would also make attractive exports for other nations.
The ship will use 076 derived hull and engines.

Hypothetical specs based on a 076 derived CATOBAR.
260m
45,000-55,000 tons
40 fixed aircraft
2 × 21 MW gas turbine
6 × 6 MW diesel
27+ knots

Interesting but pure fantasy. There is a thread called User Artwork for nice imaginative designs.
Future speculation needs a real basis more than your guesswork

Crediting the original artist would also be nice.
