Aaah...So China have the better EMALS on paper ?We got better. Neither US has an aircraft carrier with functional EMALS.

Here is the real deal, kid...

Not a single launch system have ever been trouble free and every one of them we worked it thru. EMALS is not going to be any different. If we decide not to deploy EMALS on the Gerald Ford, it is going to be from budgetary, not technical reasons.
But even if we decide not to deploy EMALS, the Gerald Ford is still overall the far superior combat platform your PLAN can produce IN THE NEXT 50 YRS.
You got one TRAINING carrier putt-putting around while we have several larger carriers in actual combat patrols and stations around the world. And you think the single item like EMALS is the definitive factor in whether whose navy is better ?
No wonder you PDF Chinese is the joke on this forum.
