In shipbuilding terminology, launch refers to a nearly finished ship being moved into the water. It is one of the most important stages in a ship s construction because once a ship is launched, it means that its main structures have been readied and all the major construction work has been completed.
The ship has been under construction by China State Shipbuilding Corp s Wuchang Shipbuilding Industry since May 2019.
