Hundred of year dream come true, General Zhang zhao Zhong don't cry. General Liu Huanqing can rest in peace. All the grievance you suffer has been cleared.

April of 2017 is an exciting month for all Chinese patriots! We have just witnessed our First space cargo ship Tianzhou-1 docking with our First Space Lab Tiangong-2, and our First commercial passenger jet C919's high speed taxing. Now we will be witnessing the launching ceremony of our First indigenous aircraft carrier 001A. What a great era for China and Chinese people, and we are lucky enough to witness it all!

You also forgot to add AVIC AG600 world's largest amphibious aircraft will perform first flight soon.

China launched its second aircraft carrier Wednesday morning in northeast China's Dalian shipyard in Liaoning Province.

The new carrier, the first domestically-built one, was transferred from dry dock into the water at a launch ceremony that started at about 9 a.m. in Dalian shipyard of the China Shipbuilding Industry Corp.

It is China's second aircraft carrier, which comes after the Liaoning, a refitted former Soviet Union-made carrier that was put into commission in the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy in 2012.

1.32 millions people in the broadcast room, most of them are young.

With type 002 with Catobar in Shanghai, and type 003 nuclear powered with EMALS in Dalian. We will have four carriers in service before year 2025.

The gap is widening, you guys need to works hard now.

Many congratulations to our Chinese brothers on achieving this technological milestone. Another great step towards gaining a true superpower status. China seems to have effectively mastered Carrier tech. I believe this was the last of conventionally powered one. Hopefully the upcoming aircraft carriers after Shandong will be all nuclear powered.

Always happy to see the progress of our Chinese brothers.
