It is now a good time to start a new Type 004 thread already.

Wait, China is building two 003 carriers simultaneously?
Why ?? First of all we don't have any fat seen yet and even if, as long as it's the same class, there's no need for a separate one. We also don't start a thread for each Type 52D.

Now fzgfzy is not quite certain about the propulsion of the Type 003, although he personally leans toward the conventional powered, but the nuclear powered is also a possibility, he is not denying it.
And this is where the first module is located on the hull of the supercarrier, since JN uses the British method of construction, while DL uses the American one.

What is the different between british method (Jiangnan Shipyard) and american method (Dalian Shipyard)?
There is a good news and a bad one, the bad news is it is probably not nuclear power and the good news is two EMALS CV is under construction.
PS:Since when does building two conventional EMALS CV becomes a bad news.
Nothing solid except a few word from "big shrimps" like Slayerhuahua and others ,we still have to wait for pics.To admit I'm sorry in case I've missed it, but how far is no. 4 confirmed at Dalian?
003 at Shanghai is now fixed but at Dalian???
Best,

To be fair, very few of us anticipated nuclear propulsion for 003. But then again, very few of us also anticipated EM catapults ...There is a good news and a bad one, the bad news is it is probably not nuclear power and the good news is two EMALS CV is under construction.

… and many Chinese military observers had claimed the very first module won't be visible until next 6 to 12 months. I don't see any one who posted diligently making the random claims about the very first presence of the module of Type 003 gave any correct indication that the 1st module would show up in JNCX in THIS JULY.To be fair, very few of us anticipated nuclear propulsion for 003. But then again, very few of us also anticipated EM catapults ...
