A catapult-launched J-15：

Ok，I admit it is just a model at a research institute，but。。。you get my drift？

Ok，the said research institute is the No. 704 Inst. of CSIC。

Now what has a ship research institute got to do with fighter jet？

Answer：002 will use steam-driven catapults to launch J-15Bs。

Major breakthroughs are in place for China's next generations of nuclear submarines。

I wish the GAD would be less conservative this time than it has always been。

The Type 095 will use the single hull structure, and it will be comparable to the Seawolf class based on the speculation from the CD forum.

Those 056 play little role to global power projection. I hope Xi will put heavy emphasis in rapid commissioning of type 052D destroyer. PLAN need to have 4 destroyer commission every year and rapidly build up at least 12 of these boats.
