She is a lady. She will attend party. She needs cleaning, salon, cosmetics, new clothes and some hairdo lol

We all will peek at her during the party… the men's eyes full of amor

Are you talking about 002? Please, it's already yesterday's news. 003 is where it's at.

Type 055 DDG #101 was commissioned at a naval base, and there are other precedents as well, so there is a chance that 002 might be commissioned at naval base instead of at ship builder's yard.

And this latest cruise may not be a sea trial.

兵器影像超话 台媒消息：中国首艘自制航母002航母及相关护卫舰队昨日晚间即从台湾海峡北端进入，美国、日本、中国台湾三方均全程监控中。台官员透露，002航母返回大连母港的时间点，应该也会在台湾“大选”投票日前后。
据透露，美国海军DDG 108导弹驱逐舰与日本海上自卫队DDG172岛风号导弹驱逐舰均尾随在002航母编队后，而台湾海军舰队则自昨晚起即在海上进行监控中。 002航母首次远海长航，跟上次辽宁舰一样，是选择相对安全的方式前往南海，靠着中国海峡线约15至20浬的海域航行，并到南海进行较密集的海上测试 ，预估也会在农历年前返回大连母港

Taiwan media news: China's first self-made aircraft carrier 002 aircraft carrier and related escort fleet entered the northern end of the Taiwan Strait yesterday evening, and the United States, Japan, and Taiwan were all monitoring. Taiwan officials revealed that the time when the 002 aircraft carrier returned to Dalian’s home port should also be around the “election” day in Taiwan.

According to reports, the US Navy's DDG 108 guided missile destroyer and the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force DDG172 Shimakaze guided missile destroyer all followed the formation of the 002 aircraft carrier, while the Taiwanese naval fleet was monitoring at sea since last night. The 002 aircraft carrier’s first long-distance long-haul flight, similar to the last time with CNS Liaoning, has chosen a relatively safe route to travel to the South China Sea, she sail on a distance 15 to 20 miles off the mainland side of Taiwan Straits, and to conduct more intensive sea tests in the South China Sea. Will return to Dalian's home port before the Lunar New Year.

May be waiting for the chef de la chefs to come back from Brazil to officiate the commissioning ceremony in Sanya base.

Is it possible that 002 will join south sea fleet?

Le 2e porte-avions chinois qui est actuellement en route vers la mer de Chine méridionale avait récupéré plusieurs chasseurs J-15 au centre d’entraînement aéronaval de Xingcheng. Le processus de validation pour ce navire semble être très différent de celui du Liaoning.

The second Chinese aircraft carrier currently en route to the South China Sea had recovered several J-15 fighters from the Xingcheng Naval Air Training Centre. The validation process for this vessel appears to be very different from that of the Liaoning.

There she is, Sanya, Hainan island, South China Sea.

If this ship is commissioned in Hainan, shouldn't it be named PLANS Hainan?
