Now even American listen to Korean music. Asian now are crazy over K-pop. The recent BTS madness is getting out of hand worldwide...

I don't believe it. Why not opt for ramp instead of catapult? It can be combat ready even asap than anybody can think of. Most likely another untrusted post.

Can fighter jet outrange ASBM? Theoritically, ASBM warhead can even fit on DF-31A to have a globe wide warship attack. The only reason why carrier needed is for superpower to exert air control and offense far from shore against smaller nation and to project power for sea trade route.

The times of carrier vs carrier are over the moment WWII ended. Aircraft carrier nowadays are just allowed u to project air defense and certain precise surface attack over the continent. It is important for bigger countries with important worldwide trade route to protect against smaller and...

So that american dive bomber can pinpoint it. :cheesy:

PLAAF are spendthrift. They will used IL-76 even more frequent if possible to make full use of it's lifespan to support whatever mission. Just like SU-27SK which PLAAF imported had already retired due to high intense usage by training pilot to expend it's lifespan to the maximum.

Nuclear or not, CVN fleet still need these giant replenishment ship tag along the fleet. There are more than 5000 crew onboard Nimitz and nearly 3000 crew onboard CV-16 Liaoning. The ration onboard can only last for 30 days. Faster depleted than the fuel consume by the ship. RAS are common for...

I think you are just pick on redundant . If recovery plane is require. The third launch pad cant launch aircraft. How long do u take to shift one aircraft across the runway pad?

Before the actual launch, so what plane need to recover since no plane on skies? Moving plane across the recovered pad has no implication. Finally, weapon elevator is different from aircraft elevator.

Makes no sense. When u are using third launch pad. There is no way, the receiving area with arrestor hook can be used to recovered plane in emergency.

Sure, China could have plant a third elevator for it but it didn't. Of cos ,USN design is very unconfident. Look at their Gerald Ford CVN. Don't you tell me it's a success. How many exercise has it joined and declared combat ready since commission and until now ,the problem of catapult...

Did I say next year or a year later after in service?

I bet PLAN will surely send 101 for a major upgrade on its next shipyard maintenance.

It just show the confident level of Chinese design for PLAN aircraft carrier.

India space agency shall be commemorate for it's archievement but to compare to China , is far too scretch. Both countries shall go at their own pace.

Next week which day? Monday or Friday makes a lot of different.

Great achievement by China.

Actually QE class aircraft carrier is only a floating platform. Without the F-35 vertical take off , it is nothing. It cannot allow AWACS to take off. CV-17 has arrestor hook system. Meaning it can recovered heavy aircraft or conventional aircraft as long as it has arrestor hook. Even France...
