Some said 001A will be launched by August to start the fill-out. The island is smaller so more space for jets.

Thanks! Yes, we need her in the water sooner than later really. PLANAF pilots have been training for a long time.. jets are no problem.. the integration and operationaliationg should take less time now. They have been training for a long time now.

Very soon, or maybe already, the pilots are going to play these new toys.

One Electromagnetic and one steam catapult were shown as at 2106/6/20 at some place in China.

Brilliant. The first couple of ACs are for near shore operations. As China moves to flattop AC we will see sonner than later electromagnetic captults as well.

People get amazed with Chinese speed of doing things..but they do not see is that years of analysis, R&D and preparations that China puts in all major projects...civilians and military alike. It is the Chinese Way.

Personally, I would rather that China starts with flattops after this current AC. One for ECS and one for SCS.

DGG055 and flattops are the correct way to go.

Anyhow, delighted with the current rate of production.

People were openly talking on the State TV that China needs 6 carriers.

Most people think the second one will be the fat top, none-nuclear powered, than followed by the nuclear ones.

The Chinese way is pragmatic, not driven by emotion but by economics. The Chinese tend to focus more on long run.

6 is about the right number.

We need to protect our supply routes from Arabian sea as well. Plus to ensure the security of our Iron brother until they have sufficient strength to gauarantee peace and stability in that region.

Also the investment in Africa needs protection. What happend to Chinese investment in Lybia can not be accepted in the future.

Great going. One step at time, the Chinese way!

Well said. They even said China does not need 10 carries as China's goal is very different. Like you said before, China only needs to protect this one road and two belts. Going south is China's priority.

And so it shall be.

When South is secured, North can be integrated properlly.

The Momentum of Life(Tao) is once again with the Dragon!
