55
China has announced the completion of the longest sea test of the latest Shandong aircraft carrier (Type-001A). The aircraft carrier created in China was at sea for about 22 days.
The Chinese media write that during this test several tests were carried out to take off the aircraft from the deck of a Chinese ship and, accordingly, to land on the deck. It is emphasized that after such tests on the Shandong deck, the fighter left traces of the tires of its chassis.
It is also reported that the so-called Anderson’s maneuver with the minimum radius possible for such a warship was tested during the tests. Anderson's maneuver is called one of the methods of saving a person overboard.
Testing "take-off and landing" was carried out by the J-15 carrier-based fighter, the base model of which is the Su-33. This plane with folded wings can be seen in the photographs of the Shandong aircraft carrier, which returned after the tests. Also on the Type-001A deck you can see a couple of helicopters of the Navy of the People's Liberation Army of China.
According to recent reports, the Shandong aircraft carrier should be part of the Chinese naval forces this fall. At the Chinese shipyards, another aircraft carrier is being built according to the "Soviet scheme". China intends to implement further options for aircraft carriers with a flat deck - according to the "American scheme."
