The Type 901 combined replenishment ship (Chinese: 901型综合补给舰, NATO reporting name: Fuyu-class AOE,^[5] also known as the Hulunhu class) is a class of fast combat support ships of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy.^[6]

The Type 901 is estimated to have a 45,000 ton displacement^[4] and a beam of 31.5 m (103 ft).^[6] The ship's propulsion is powered by four QC280 gas turbines, each delivering 28 MW (38,000 hp), for maximum speed of about 25 kn (46 km/h; 29 mph); the speed is necessary to keep up with aircraft carriers.^[4] The Type 901 is more than twice the size of the preceding Type 903A and significantly faster.^[4][7]

The Type 901 appears to be designed with similar missions to the Supply-class fast combat support ship^[8] which is to keep large surface action groups supplied.
