Admiral Kuznetsov. Russian navy's biggest warship.

china learned building aircraft carriers from russia that is reason chinese carriers have similar structure like that of russian carriers,they carrier sold by ukraine was actually build by russia in times of ussr

Sorry, the Russian never teach Chinese anything... The shipyard that build the carrier is in Ukraine and not Russia after Soviet Union dissolve. The Ukraine facilities are rotting as time goes by and many expert that once in the carrier project has chosen other jobs.

I know western source with zero knowledge of CV-16 Liaoning will come up with plenty of misinfo in english article to fool readers. If China depend on Russia for our first carrier. I can assure you, the CV-17 shandong second carrier will still be in the shipyard now. Presently, Chinese fully grasped all the know how of building carrier which result in rapid commission and build of CV-17 carrier.

Unfortunately , plenty of geuine info for our aircraft carrier history are in Chinese documentary.


Let me ask you a basic common sense question. If Russian really have the know how to build CV-16 liaoning or modernise. Why until now, they still could get their Kuznetsov up and upgrade of the boiler? The carrier is still rotting at Russia shipyard. And there is talk about sending this Russian carrier to Dalian shipyard in China to get it repair but only pride prevented such move.

As I recall the carrier arrived off Syria in November 2016 and left in January 2017.
Less than 3 months.

That thing barely made it there before it had to go back. Its deployment time to repair time is pathetic.

Meanwhile the USS Lincoln just recently finished a 10 month deployment.

Don't say the Kuznetsov is an "old carrier". It became fully operational in 1991. The Lincoln was 1989.

It's not that old. The youngest frigate in the Canadian navy was commissioned in 1996.
