The ARSB wishes to announce the production of a carrier, a medium-sized carrier capable of carrying up to 50 aircraft. The carrier will be built mostly to carry ASW, Anti-ship, and other maritime-mission aircraft, with a slighly different version built for carrying general purpose aircraft.

Also, each ship may carry a single CL-17 airborne radar and warning aircraft. Some variants may have slightly different numbers of aircraft such as an ASW-oriented carrier may carry more HVN-03Ms as well as CL-17AW ASW aircraft.
The general purpose ship will most likely carry a variety of different fighters with at least one CL-17 airborne radar aircraft and at least 6 DP-21A to fill the role of anti-aircraft interceptors and EW.
