China has launched its third aircraft carrier, bringing the country one step closer to a modern powerful navy.
Built entirely in China, the third Chinese aircraft carrier joins two other carriers that have previously entered service.
The new aircraft carrier is considered much more advanced than the previous two carriers, with a length of about 320 meters and a width of about 73 meters.
The United States has the largest number of aircraft carriers in service with a total of 11 carriers, followed by China and Britain, with 2 carriers each, and one each for Russia, France, Italy, India, and Thailand.
