Haebang (Menghean: 해방 / 解放, "liberation") is an aircraft carrier in the Menghean Navy. She was laid down in 1981 and commissioned in 1990. A sister ship, Sŭngri (승리 / 勝利, "victory"), was laid down in 1984, but construction was halted in 1985 due to steel shortages, and from 1986 onward her keel was broken up to support the construction of other ships.
Haebang was the first Menghean aircraft carrier to be laid down after the end of the Pan-Septentrion War in 1945, and also the first Menghean aircraft carrier capable of launching and recovering jet aircraft. Due to a lack of design experience between 1945 and 1980, she featured a number of compromises and outright design flaws, particularly with regard to her flight deck layout, elevator placement, and propulsion system. Operational experience with the Haebang contributed to the design of the Sibiwŏl Hyŏgmyŏng class aircraft carriers, which corrected many of the Haebang's deficiencies.
