You truly understand the meaning of the Chinese circle. Cheers bro

When the centre is strong, strong circle can be drawn, the compass always depends on its sharpest edge!

 

[CAPRICORN-88]

No, you cannot!

can we put catapult on the ski jump ramp?

No, it cannot be done. A catapult will required a flat surface.

How far are we? Is the island already installed?
This ship needs to be in the waters sooner than later.
Any update is welcome. Jane is always behind the fact and not always reliable.

The ratio looks wrong. CV-16 photo is much bigger than 001A.

 

[Mangus Ortus Novem]

Yes, what is wrong with proportions?
But more important is the island installed yet?

The fabrication of the island superstructure is still on going. It will not be installed so soon. Could be in middle of next month or September.

Right now the module expected to be installed is the final parts of ski ramp, the angle deck and the pontoon next to the angle deck.

Dear Icloo, many thanks for your kind update. Yes, it is quite high speed of construction...yet patience is a virtue.

Thanks!

Will a single catapult be installed on flat angle flight deck? I hope so. PLA must be more willing to take risk and new concept doctrine.

 

[Zhu Rong Zheng Yang]

Yes, agree ~ if PLAN is NOT willing to install EMAL CAT on the flat angle flight deck, then PLAN Admirals in Power need to be reeducated again in front of Chm XIJP.

Does anyone know what device is being pointed by Superstar Scientist MA in front of Adm. WU ??
