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

Can anyone take a look here ... https://lt.cjdby.net/thread-2603109-1-1.html

It seems as if there are new images which only show up when signed in.

Just different camps of supporters debating over whether there will be 2 or 4 ships for 003 aircraft carrier design, and whether JNCX shipyard will build two 003 with another two to be built in Dalian, or JNCX will be building all two ships and none for Dalian shipyard.

Images are print-screen of Weibo postings (some dated back to 2018), mostly words in Chinese characters.

three catapults mention by some military amateur from Weibo which close reliationship in ship buiding industry.

The CG image from 西葛西 will only be accurate when the final form of the ship has been revealed.

He may be a military amateur, but he surely is a professional CG-artist. :-)

For now, the only controversial topics are nuclear vs conventional and four catapults vs three catapults.

But the tonnage estimation of the ship has been kept increasing as the ship has started to take form.

And the previous estimation of 73,000 metric tons from fzgfzy was clearly off, and he made the same wrong bet for the Type 075.

Isnt the 003 between 80 to 100k tons?
 
The new harbour basin work has been extended to 2020 May 31st. If transfer of modules to dry dock begins in June, the ship will likely be launched in 2021. Commissioning could be 2023.

So basically we are at late 2015/early 2016 using the 002 construction timeline when describing progress of the 003?
