Chinese aircraft carriers will be built in Dalian and Shanghai

China will begin building two aircraft carriers with a conventional power plant in Dalian and Shanghai in 2014 and 2015, a source at the Central Military Council of China told Duowei News, operating outside China. Reports wantchinatimes.com about it.

According to the PRC Central Military Council program “Project 48,” China intends to create three aircraft carrier strike groups by 2020 with one AUG in each navy Navy PLA. Two new aircraft carriers of their own construction, Type 001A, will be an updated version of the first Chinese aircraft carrier Liaoning (pictured), which was originally a Soviet aircraft carrier of the Admiral Kuznetsov class and was purchased in Ukraine in 1998. New carriers are also likely to have a nasal take-off ramp, Duowei reports.

Sources said that the main purchasing department of the PLA has already concluded a contract with China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation for the construction of two aircraft carriers. The total cost of aircraft carriers is estimated at 9 billion US dollars.

According to sources, China has not yet decided whether J-15 will be replaced by J-31 stealth fighters as the next-generation carrier-based fighter. The J-31, like the one entered into service with the J-15, must take off and land on the deck of the Liaoning aircraft carrier. Sources said that the decision will be made after the construction of the second and third aircraft carriers of their own project. This will give the PLA more time to choose a new type of carrier-based fighter needed in the future, the source added.

Here in 2014 and 2015 we learn, not long left. We have SILENCE before 2020. And it seems that soon the Chinese shipyards will speak Ukrainian ...

We Carrier is not a priority need, the one that is unclear what to do. We do not have many obligations and investments to protect them at such a cost far from borders, we will build such devices for those who see a need for them for themselves. Chinese AUGs are unlikely to pose a threat to us, but for the region of Southeast Asia this is a splinter, but I would like to see what happens in the end, because Chinese technology usually does not differ in the resource of work and an aircraft carrier is a very complex organism

Yes, what are you saying ... And who is not looking at the future? Of course, they look and understand that it is very difficult to defend the NORTH without aircraft carrier groups ... there the airfield network is weak, the climate changes very quickly, so the NSR will be navigable all year round, and there it will be possible to walk to the joint venture on "clean water" .. It will be difficult without full-fledged AUG ...

once the Chinese wanted to create two aircraft carriers, then they will. There are almost no "D. effective managers" there. They crushed them in 1989 in Tiananmen

Yes, they are only planning to row. But they plan to actually do what they can already do. And they could sit and envy the Americans - "oh what catapults, oh what railguns"

How did you determine that they can do this? while they can only see what they want, they don’t have any catapults or even railguns, even the ship received from Ukraine is unfinished.

Right now it will start "they won't be able, they won't be able to", like su 33 or aerofiners, they will be able to and will adopt everything,
I thought it was a sinful thing, but it’s not easier to buy basins from them and then to equip them ourselves or even ready ...

they don’t have an aerofinisher like the deck production cycle, so they can’t and can’t do it yet, and when they can and will be able to see if everything can be afford and able to afford

The ambitious plans of the Chinese CCP !!! Soon they will appear before the United States as a real threat !!!

The total cost of aircraft carriers is estimated at 9 billion US dollars - for a couple, I recall the article where they wrote about our aircraft carrier and about its price - 400 billion rubles, see http://topwar.ru/30472-rossiyskiy-avianosec-ocenili-v-400-milliardov- rub

they can’t launch a semi-finished aircraft carrier and already intend to build two more in 6 years - pi ... don’t turn over bags and work capacity refers more to the second

[major071]

The declared value of 2's two aircraft carriers in 9 billion is clearly not final, costs will increase at least once in 1,5-2. But the idea is good, it remains to implement it.

China is real and what is called on its own skin knows the real possibilities and viability of the dollar, and therefore, until everything is covered with a copper basin, it seeks to use the financial opportunities that its position as a sponsor of the SyShyA economy gives.
As for the aircraft carriers-China may-China will be!
And all our homegrown "experts" on the letter "M" who oppose the creation of this segment of the fleet can go to a known address. This is the opinion of the USSR naval commanders, and the real naval reality, supported by the general tendency of the great maritime powers, including China.

China's closed structure is difficult to double-check their data, and the traditions of dusting the eyes in the east are very old.

Are needed. China needs aircraft carriers. (so that the colonies of the United States. Japan. South Korea and so on. do not relax )

[Bashkaus]

Very very serious aircraft carriers will be: the head will be called "Liaodong" In Shanghai, the oars are already being planed by the millions, earthworks have begun between the cities of Yingkou and Sinuiju to disconnect the Kwantung Peninsula.
According to preliminary expert estimates, up to several aviation armies will be in service, including strategic aviation units, naturally destructive, reconnaissance, and two space regiments with five cosmodromes! Air defense is represented by several divisions of the Chinese counterpart C300. Offensive weapons to three regiments with intercontinental missiles. Crew up to 400ml So will the whole peninsula plow the expanses of the oceans)))

Why would they have such a "non-aircraft carrier"? With a conventional propulsion system and a ramp? Why didn’t you swing at "William Our Shakespeare", the heavy nuclear aircraft carrier of the "Nimitz" system, and even cooler, "Gerald Ford"? Or is this the next step? And so, this is a sea ferry for transporting a "formidable" Chinese air group to a potential enemy, behind whose shoulders the more formidable forces of the US 7th Fleet may well loom ...

The Americans do not allow the campaign to be copied, but they themselves are weak ...

[moremansf]

Once they said, it means they will build ... they will gradually master the technology of "non-aviation carriers" and then they will swing at William of our Shakespeare, as they say, give them a time ... they have a lot of human potential, well, and their working capacity is appropriate, which is what we sometimes lack, unfortunately ...

[Starover_Z]

I fully join the words Andrew more mansf. We do not read their press and the Internet, and therefore, for example, I don’t know if they have any talker-broadcasters promising that “- from 2020 to 2050 something will be created and built that no one else has and everyone will be afraid! "
Just even on this site we read that the Chinese are building up their armed forces and collecting the equipment that they need.
We would have their opportunity! (No offense to the Russian military-industrial complex).
