China showed J-15 fighter flights from the deck of the new Shandong aircraft carrier

China showed the first take-offs of J-15 carrier-based fighters from the latest Shandong aircraft carrier, which was introduced to the PLA Navy on December 17 this year. Video of flights was presented by the Chinese television channel CCTV7.

J-15s were chosen as deck fighters for the new aircraft carrier. It was with these aircraft that the aircraft carrier passed a test cycle. At the first Chinese aircraft carrier Liaoning, J-15 fighters also form the basis of the wing.

J-15 - an aircraft created on the basis of the Su-33, a prototype of which China purchased in Ukraine and then developed its own fighter based on it, later received the name "Flying Shark" in the PLA Navy.

Earlier, an official representative of the PLA Naval Forces Cheng Delay explained why the new Chinese aircraft carrier was named "Shandong" and tail number "17". According to him, the aircraft carrier is named after the eastern province of China, Shandong, and the number "17" is assigned to the ship, because the number "16" belongs to the first Chinese aircraft carrier "Liaoning".

The rules for the designation of warships clearly state that warships of the above type "cruiser" and "universal landing ship" receive the names of provinces or cities of central subordination. In accordance with this rule, and also taking into account the applications of the provinces and cities themselves, the second Chinese aircraft carrier was called "Shandong"

- Delay explained.

"Shandong" - the first Chinese aircraft carrier fully own production. The construction of the ship started in 2013, and in 2017 it was launched.

According to the Huanqiu Shibao newspaper, the adoption of the Shandong aircraft carrier into service with the PLA Navy means that China is the first to stories became the owner of two aircraft carrier groups. In addition to the United States, which has several AUGs, only Great Britain and China can boast of two carrier groups. Moreover, both states acquired second aircraft carriers in December of this year.

Comments

[Dmitry Donskoy]

Well, the Anglo-Saxons want to lease their aircraft carrier. They built it, but they don’t see the dough enough for maintenance. But China is good. Already 2 AUGs and, in my opinion, three are being done. Do you remember Kuzyu’s start?

[Lexus]

Yes, take off from a springboard. But planes do not fall. Apparently, the cables of the wrong system. Or hands from where it should grow.

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

Strange, but we do not fall from the springboard either ....

[Destiny]

 The problems were not with the crashed plane, but with the equipment of the Admiral Kuznetsov's take-off and landing deck. When landing a troika of aircraft flying for reconnaissance, the second of those landing tore the aircraft finisher's cable with its hook, and the released end also got tangled behind another cable. It was not possible to eliminate the accident on the deck quickly. Therefore, the MiG-29 was deprived of the possibility of landing and, having used up the remaining fuel, was doomed to fall into the water. With the second aircraft, the same deck support is to blame, not the pilots and not the springboard.

[Lexus]

They could not take off with a full refueling. Specificity of the STOBAR scheme. Almost "dry" were forced to return to "Kuznetsov". And it never occurred to anyone to organize an operation, as it should be, with a tanker on duty, at worst, a Su-24 with an UPAZ, if the MiGs from the wing cannot be adapted for this. Khmeimim was there!

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

They could - from the third position. And fantasies about the fact that the crashed plane ran out of fuel - they are fantasies. More precisely, a very loose translation of the phrase "fuel has ceased to flow into the engines"

[Lexus]

Andrei, with all due respect, why didn’t I sit on Khmeimim, if all the tip-top is with fuel?

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

Because he was waiting for landing on the TAVKR and, for unclear reasons, the fuel suddenly ceased to flow into the engines. Some kind of technical glitch

[Lexus]

There are two accidents for one and a half departure for "unclear reasons." Isn't it too much? And "Kuznetsov" will now be constantly "set on fire" and "repaired" for billions of dollars, until they send Chittagong "on pins and needles." And the "potreots" will threaten the Americans with lowered trousers ... Those who have one wing of any aircraft carrier in a week makes more sorties than our TAVKR had them in history.

You, the campaign, laurels Stropogryz do not give rest?

Two crashes for one and a half departure

What a bastard you are, buddy

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

Well, not by one and a half, but by more than 400, and the reasons are more than clear. Mig-29KR have not yet been adopted, the pilots have not passed the prescribed training course. The ship was sent on a hike after a long repair without restoration of combat efficiency, that is, the crew did not pass the required training. As a result - jambs with aerofinisher, the team failed to resolve the issue and the failure of new equipment in the air on time

[Nkv3]

Let's summarize.
1. Mig-29KR have not yet been adopted. OK.
2. Pilots have not completed the required training course. OK.
3. The ship was sent on a hike after a long repair without restoring combat capability. OK.
4. The ship’s team is not trained, since it cannot timely eliminate the joint with aerofinishes. OK.
Perfectly.
Now the question is: why send Kuzyu on a Syrian campaign? SUCH Kuzyu?
With untrained pilots. With untrained crew. With ship problems of a purely technical nature?
What for?
Fingers fan out? Like, and we can!
And what can we really do? People make fun? To install smoke curtains? Aircraft to sink?
Speaking of airplanes. Well, they can’t take off with full payload and full tanks from Kuzi’s deck! Can not!
Who do we want to deceive? Adversary? Yes, he knows our troubles better than us.

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

Perfectly.

I raised this question in one of my articles on Kuznetsov. You are right, there was no need to send a ship in this state.

Quote: Nkv3

Speaking of airplanes. Well, they can’t take off with full payload and full tanks from Kuzi’s deck! Can not!

In fact, they can even from the first and second positions. In fact took off. But - this is for pilots of the Bogdan level, therefore, at full load, take-offs are allowed only from the third

As a result of this campaign, everyone who was involved in this, from sailors to admirals, received the status of a participant in the database with all the set life benefits?

And why did the plane WAIT for landing?

Quote: Andrey from Chelyabinsk

suddenly

But what happened suddenly with the Su-33? Also, the fuel stopped coming for an unclear reason?

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

I waited because the team needed time to replace the aerofinisher. And in the case of the Su-33, the aerofinisher broke off, causing the plane to roll off the deck

[Talgat 148]

Because they take off with a minimum take-off weight, fuel there and back.

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

Quote: Talgat 148

Because they take off with a minimum take-off weight

Who told you such nonsense? :))) Take off at least with normal take-off weight, and maybe with full, if from the third position

[u-345]

Somehow it "suddenly stopped flowing" just in time.
Don't you think? If it fell due to running out of fuel, then the hats flew. And if the failure of technology - then the ends in the water. Looking for black boxes at the bottom - a flag in your hands.

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

The fact is that fuel could not run out on the MiG. There are special emergency supplies just for such cases. And do not consider the command more stupid than it really is. If the plane were really kept near the ship until the fuel was developed, it would be easy to establish by the timing of events, records of negotiations with the pilot, and so on. A black box is not needed for this

[u-345]

Quote: Andrey from Chelyabinsk

The fact is that fuel could not run out on the Miga

Perpetual motion machine?
It is clear that you are not exactly expressed.

What special emergency supplies specifically for such cases?
Yes, the light on the emergency balance will light up and this will end.
And you can "lose" the recordings of negotiations.
And you can’t restore the time without black boxes either easily or hard - in any way.

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

A deck aircraft always has a fuel reserve when returning to an aircraft carrier specifically in case of difficulties during landing. These are alpha and omega carrier-based aviation.
And to lose the records of negotiations with the crashed plane .... That's for IT-the smells really fly

[boss]

correct analysis!
minusers - by

[Lexus]

Because now we do not have a "springboard" ... And, rather, there will be no more. THREAD, of course, does not count. Well, if only the "highest" decision is not made to use freshly built tugs and give oars to the Crimeans. In that hpp?

[Golovan Jack]

unless the "highest" decision is made to use freshly built tugs and give oars to the Crimeans

"Lekhus", that's really - without lula - as without gingerbread

[Robertocalos]

Of course. Do not take off, so do not fall.

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

So when they took off - did not fall

[Thunderbolt]

warships of higher types "cruiser" and "universal amphibious assault ship" receive the names of provinces or cities of central subordination.

Well ... the Chinese have many cities and provinces, and very motivated people control them.

[Robertocalos]

The Chinese want to show who is the boss in the Southeast Asian region. Do it right. But this is not for war, for a show off. A show in 90% of cases rolls. For the rest, there are ballistic missiles.

[Catfish]

Beautiful ship.
This is just the case that although the "Chinese elephant is the younger brother of the Russian elephant", the youngest has outdone the older brother. Unfortunately.

[cost]

Two Chinese AUGs are China’s neighbors in the South China Sea. A serious argument on the issue of disputed territories.
An aircraft-carrying ship is the most suitable means for covering territorial waters (or what Beijing considers them to be) in the conditions of scattered islands and reefs.

[donavi49]

Well, you only take a piece. They make a giant fleet. And at an incredible pace. From tugboats and fleet supplies (the largest in the world) to destroyers and UDC.

Here Shanghai is a bunch of new destroyers on completion, and 003 Aircraft carrier are already docking at the back.

Here the UDC is already docked in the second building, and the first is being completed.

Well, another pair of destroyers in Dalniy came up - 055 for 112 universal mines and 052D long for their new Z-20 helicopter and 64 mines.

[Connor MacLeod]

So that's great! What is wrong with the fact that the 7th US fleet will be completely constrained? This will untie the hands of our Pacific Fleet.

[Ryaruav]

Rich in China, there is a base aircraft above the roof of the aircraft carriers for China is the opportunity to make a sharp lunge from the coverage area of ​​the base aircraft, well, in the oceans, unfortunately, the ball is still ruled by us nevi

[The leader of the Redskins]

Like it or not, our neighbor helped to create the aircraft carrier fleet in China - both the first aircraft carrier and the carrier-based fighter in the form of a prototype!

[knn54]

What do you mean there is no YOUR aviation school.
"15" was created on the basis of the Su-33. The Americans are using the naval version of the "invisible" -F-35V.
And with OWN "20" something the Chinese (for aircraft carriers) do not work

[New Year day]

Toad crushes, because we could once

[Ryaruav]

Sylvester, I think that we could have done better if we continued forward

[Alien From]

Well done Chineese, hardworking guys.

[vanavatny]

another country that builds because it can, and does not, endless debates about projects for which there is no money

[janeck]

I have a friend. a senior official from the MO. often in China for working hours. I heard from him that they adopted a lot of things from the USSR .. but slightly modernized with Chinese characteristics.
- this is where the successes of the Chinese comrades are growing from. in any case, striding widely .. both in economics and in politics. I envy.

[Looking for]

Quote: Silvestr

because we could once

keyword once upon a time.

[Avior]

... The J-15 is an aircraft created on the basis of the Su-33, the prototype of which China purchased in Ukraine and then developed its own fighter on its basis, which later received the name "Flying Shark" in the PLA Navy.

This paragraph is shoved into each article, although the Chinese themselves said clearly and unambiguously that the j15 was not made on the basis of Su33, but on the basis of j11b, which, in turn, is a modernized copy of Su27, which was assembled in China under a Russian license, and there is no one proof of what was done on the basis of Su33.
I don’t know why they are doing this, whether to splash mud on Ukraine once again, because they didn’t need the Su33 prototype they sold to China, because they want to put out a smokescreen, covering who actually leaked the technologies of the Su family to China, supplying hundreds of them , as well as ready-made assembly kits and a production license, including not only Su27, but also Su35, or both
But the fact that the Chinese aircraft industry rose on these supplies of Su27, Su35 and engines to them, this does not go to the grandmother.

[Klingon]

great at the Chinese it turns out well done well done! Well, what are we? we * have * another * Toli's fire will still be.! and ... hello to the woofer!

[rocket757]

They have flights in reality, but we do not even dream!
Something like this turns out.

[New Year day]

2 countries and two approaches: the first one builds a fleet and boosts the economy, shoots thieves and gives out pensions without employees of the pension fund, and the second one, which barely builds small ships, thinks about the only aircraft reanimation or sawing, whose economy is in short supply while billionaires and millionaires are growing by leaps and bounds, the number of employees of the pension fund is the largest in the world, but there are no pensions. Two countries, two ways

[Sibguest]

"The J-15 is an aircraft created on the basis of the Su-33, the prototype of which China purchased in Ukraine and then developed its own fighter on its basis ...."
Why does the desire for political correctness in statements tend to distort the essence of the issue?
But the essence of the matter is this: China is not able (as it always has been and will continue to be) to develop a carrier-based fighter from scratch, so I bought (apparently someone from a generous sold cheaply) the Russian Su-33, made it out as I could - copied , and began to produce under the brand name J-15.
That is, there is another (not the first and not the last) theft of the Chinese military-industrial complex of Russian military developments.

[donavi49]

Well, before that, he bought a bunch of Su-30s. And mastered the release of J-11 at home.

By the way, now he has already screwed up the AFAR, and the electronics, and the wide-format HUD, like Thales, but even on the Su-35C there is a modification of the very same Soviet HMI from the 80s.

[Alex_You]

And the deck is then vacuumed! Not that they don’t have cars?

[Alex_You]

But the Americans are busy with their beautiful:

[Adimius38]

Well, well done the Chinese for 4 years to launch an aircraft carrier on the water is beyond praise. And we have Admiral Nakhimov cruiser since 2013 can not be brought to mind only in 2022. That is, we have been upgrading the ship for 9 years)))) and this despite the fact that the ship itself already exists)) and those from scratch an aircraft carrier for 4 years)

[Adimius38]

The future is beyond power. There they commanded, there they commanded you look and there will be the strongest fleet in the world

[Pustogolov]

Well, what - now only the US is a superpower and so will China.
