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

[Deino]

Can we come back to the topic please ??

The Russian Navy, ice-free pots and Murmansk are in no way related to the Type 002.

002 may looks like this: a nice CG

Bad CGI artist. The take-off flap on the right is blocking the landing strip...

Funny ... I found a post from our own @52051 quoted at the SDF but not here in the relevant thread !

Ma Weiming, the star scientist from PLA University of Navy Engineering, recently accepted a invitation from his friend, the president of Shanghai University, to give a talk with students there on innovation and future career advice.

During this talk, he disclosed much information regarding PLA's future weapons platform:

(1) The next CV for PLAN will mostly likely to be equipped with electromagnetic aircraft launch system there is open competition, the results will be announced next month, and he implies he will win due to huge lead comparing to the competitors.

And he told that Presidnent Xi Jinping personally order the build of next Chinese CV on-hold until the competition is over.

Ma pointed out the design flaws of the EMAL on the Ford and claimed that his own version of EMALS will be far more efficient and won't have health hazard to the crew unlike the one on Ford class.

(3) More interestingly, the high speed submersible battleship concept, developed by another professor from the same school, is nicknamed as a "all-round" capable warship by General Ma; he told the students that such a ship will be equipped with laser/EM, railguns, and fully-electrified powertrain and transmission system.

Most interesting part is: He mentioned that the ASBMs on such novel class of a battleship will be electromagnetically-launched, which means that such ASBMs will use much smaller boost-stage and overall weight and yet would still deliver the same amount of payload/range compared to their conventional counterpart.

Note that electromagnetic-launched commerical rockets are also developed parallely by China Aerospace Science & Industry Corp, also using Ma Weiming's electromagnetic -launch technology:

(4) During the talk, Ma also show a video of EMALS-launched J-15 and also mentioned that China's electronic powertrain/transmission systems are at least 1 generation better than the next gen US comparable systems, and that China's electrified powertrain will be also used on next gen systems like SSN/SSBN/tanks.

The above content has never been mentioned in the original article.

Steam or EMALS. Now that's the question.

Waiting for the confirmation.

PS: This should be in a different thread

I am inclined to say that the pictured is EMALS in action

We have the system, talents and money to deliver.

Time is the only issue.

Do we know if the above and the rumored "J-15B" (with AESA from 607) are the same aircraft? Or is the J-15B more of an interim solution until the CATOBAR version is ready?

Thanks.

Nice, a J-15B with WS-10H.

I believed this is a J15T, enhanced landing gear for catapult launch.

The J-15B is also the catapult version, that's why the Type 001A will still use the J-15A instead of the J-15B.

Since the AL-31F is more suitable for the ski-jump takeoff than the WS-10H.

I am aware of that, but this is a J15T for catapult testing purpose. J15B is the one we gonna put on 002.

The J-15T is basically the prototype of the J-15B.
