China published new footage on Monday of its latest aircraft carrier using an electromagnetic catapult to launch its warplanes, showcasing the use of new naval technology that only the US has so far deployed.

The video clips released by the People's Liberation Army Navy, or simply PLAN, show its J-35 stealth fighter, J-15T carrier-based fighter, and KJ-600 early warning and control aircraft taking off from its Fujian carrier.
