The first fully Chinese and the second aircraft carrier of the Chinese Navy completed five-day running tests, according to state television channel CCTV.


Recognized as successful. China has completed the test of aircraft carrier


During the five-day test, launched on May 13, the task of testing the aircraft carrier's equipment was successfully completed.
- noted in the report. After adopting this aircraft carrier will become the second ship of this class in the Navy of the People’s Liberation Army of China.

The aircraft carrier returns to the port of Dalian, from the shipyard of which he went out to test the power plant 13 in May. The 001А project ship, which is the first aircraft carrier fully built in China, has not yet received its name, but the press sometimes calls it "Shandong." It was launched in April 2017 of the year after four years of construction. Launch aircraft carrier planned no earlier than 2020 year. By this time, he will be able to carry X-NUMX fighters J-36 (a copy of the Soviet ship-based fighter Su-15, the prototype of which was bought from Ukraine).

According to reports by the Hong Kong press, China last year began construction of its third aircraft carrier at the shipyard in Shanghai, which will be equipped with an ultra-modern electromagnetic system of catapults to accelerate the take-off of aircraft.

      This is some kind of intermediate ... That's what worries me. Why don't we have money for an aircraft carrier? After all, to buy an aircraft carrier from themselves is the same contract, albeit without profit. Immediately, he transferred from one wallet to another, which again will return and industry is developing, people live and work ... And we do not buy this feeling from ourselves, but from the aligarchs ... who will not sell without profit ... asking why !!!

          Here! In China, aircraft carriers with a springboard rather than with a catapult are preferred. The throughput is higher and, unlike the catapult, the springboard does not break.
          Why, then, is the Russian model of a “promising” aircraft carrier in imitation of the Americans with a catapult?

            Let's be honest. This is a complete copy of our aircraft carrier, only without anti-ship missiles. The Chinese can not yet design ships of this class from scratch. Therefore, a springboard instead of a catapult (they stupidly do not have it, and is not yet expected)

              That's it. The springboard is more efficient, more reliable, and we have already worked out.
              The transition to a catapult is a step into the past.

                There is one problem, without a catapult the AWACS plane will not take off. And without it, an aircraft carrier is only suitable for bombing the Papuans, who have neither anti-ship missiles, nor submarines.

                  An airship is better for AWACS. It eats less fuel, it can hang for weeks, the conditions for crews are more comfortable, and you can cram the antenna inside very well.

            Not. They consider this a dead end. But - at the same time they are pragmatists.

            They had a Varangian - on which they trained their competencies.

            They have a lot of money in the fleet. There is a J-15 / 17 aircraft - which does not need a catapult. It is possible to build another AB in Dalniy before the Type-002 is designed, so why not build it?

            On Tip-001, equipment and new products that will be on Tip-002 are maximally rolled in. They will have an identical energy part for example.

            Tip-002 will be without a springboard and per group in 60 aircraft. In fact, it will be their Kitty Hawk version.

            Higher throughput

            higher throughput at the catapult. Especially if there are several, and not one springboard. In general, the carrying capacity (the time of raising the wing) is also provided by the places of preparation of the aircraft, the number of aircraft lifters and the layout of aircraft in hangars. The Chinese do not have a working catapult, and there is nothing to feed them (if there are three) (there are no YaU), and therefore an aircraft carrier with a springboard. Do not confuse cause and effect ...

    The Chinese are walking far ... but from my point of view, aircraft carriers with the further development of hypersonic weapons in the future will become a very vulnerable target and putting huge amounts of money into this business is a big risk.

      Why is Russia an aircraft carrier now ... what ?
      An aircraft carrier is a weapon of blackmail ... who can they blackmail our country in the world ... Russia's Armed Forces are capable of destroying any state in the world ... if only an aircraft carrier is built for local conflicts ... but how justified is its use, for example, in the same Syria what ?
      After all, for example, Americans cannot use their AUGs to the full in the Syrian conflict because of the high risk of receiving a dozen Granites as a gift for their super-duper aircraft carriers.

    But how many atomic icebreakers do they have? If there was a task to conquer the Papuans and we would start to build with a creak, this nagging on VO was tired. Under the USSR, it was justified to have a fleet for the expansion of socialism in the Papuan countries, and the protection of the Allies, now what the hell is it? If one missile with hypersound makes it a mass grave. And the Chinese with their troubles with the disputed islands and Taiwan, these aircraft carriers are needed .....

            That's what Russia definitely does not need, because these are giant aircraft carriers. UDCs are needed, BDKs are needed, Cruisers and destroyers are needed, corvettes, an underwater fleet, that's what we need, not aircraft carriers.

              and who will provide air cover for all this your beauty? Or do you want to turn them into tin targets for enemy missiles? Everything is needed, and AB cannot be thrown away. It turns out that they set up a bunch of tanks of any other usefulness, and put them into battle without air cover. Maybe they themselves under the tribunal, without waiting? ...

    This is because in Russia the ruling class are foreign traders. They do not care about the interests of Russia itself as a state, they are only interested in free trade and unhindered export of capital abroad. All this Russian ruling class does not live in Russia, but in the West and treats Russia as a trough, from which it simply eats ... Yes, it protects this “trough” to the best of its ability, does not at all take care that everything around is clean and beautiful because devouring from this "trough" he goes home, to the West, where everything is clean and beautiful ...

      Kuznetsov is a premature bearer. Whether you like it or not. If you look soberly, then there are at least two minuses:
      1. There are no catapults, as a result, there is a limitation on the take-off mass of cars and there is no AWACS. Without which the Aircraft Carrier is nothing more than an almost helpless aircraft carrier.
      2. Granites gobbled up so much that the air group could be increased by a third. Kuznetsov is not so small, but how much does LA and Nimitz take? Take an interest.
