CV-18 Fujian - Type 003 Aircraft Carrier News & Discussions

And while the tense is raising on when - eventually on Friday as it seems - the Type 003 carrier is being launched … here another new image. Looks like some sort of small red flags all along on top of these shelters covering the catapults.

Nice picture and thanks for sharing. Someone zoomed into the top of the shelters and found out those are slogans written in Chinese.

Not flags, slogans in Mandarin:

Traditional way to read from right to left, top to bottom:

Realize the Party's goal of strengthening the military in the new era, and build the People's Army into a world-class military in all aspects

Strive to build a strong and modernized navy, and provide strong support for the realization of the Chinese dream and the dream of a strong Chinese military

Accelerate the construction of a world-class shipbuilding group with reasonable industrial structure, outstanding military core, leading quality and efficiency, and strong international competitiveness

You got every single character figured out! This is wonderful. Thanks.
 

CV-18 Fujian launched, CCTV segment link above, guess the Jiangsu rumours were wrong.
President Xi last time is the governor of Fujian. I guess this is one major factors in pushing Fujian for the aircraft carrier name. Plus they are trying to win the Taiwan card as many Taiwanese originated from this province.
 
Pride of Hokkien Lang (People of Fujian). Me 50% Quanzhou and 50% Xiamen.:-)
I guess, north , central and south of China ,all has at least a name for major aircraft carrier. Fair and square. Wondering , will they name an inland province for an aircraft carrier? Imagine an aircraft carrier called Xinjiang.
