CV-18 Fujian - Type 003 Aircraft Carrier News & Discussions

The Type 002 got a twin, either both using the steam catapult or both using the EMALS. Now the EMALS is the only option. The performance of the steam catapult is also very good, it suggests that China's steam catapult can also match the performance of the C13-2 using by the late Nimitz class. There are two types of EMALS and one type of steam catapult. The steam catapult simply got outgunned by both model of the EMALS.

General Zhang said: China type002 A.C won't install EMALS ... Do u believe ?

This is the most reliable proof that 002 will use EMALS.

General Zhang is the most respected expert on Chinese web. However, his prediction needs to be understood in the opposite way. Just as his prediction in 2010 that J-20 does not exist.

Now General Zhang makes another prediction, this make me believe more than ever that 002 will use EMALS.

Some may ask why? Well, this is a too long story.

Personally I prefer 002 AC to be EMALS even if the technology is still immature, instead of wasting money on something that is about to be obsoleted such as steam catapult why not spend more time and money on EMALS, we
're not in the rush to have arm race with anyone...002 EMALS can be our scientific research ship as Liaoning and 003 shall be our truth EMAL operational carrier.
 
Whether it's EMALS depends on the progress of the nuclear reactor development of the carrier.

Conventional carrier is not s big deal.

is it true that emals will require nuclear power since there is more electrical energy required? Or just conventional power will do?
 
hope type002 can install nuclear power as well :x

restore back chinese pride! :))
China hasn't started development of nuclear power plants for CV untill last year.

If type 002 use nuclear power, it's schedule will be seriously delayed.

Thus, we shall expect two conventional type 002s before the nuclear type 003.

Nuclear has nothing to do with EMALS. Acturally, EMALS consumes lesser energy than stem catapult, make it more avaliable for convential powered CV.

Caution: it is Energy here, not electricity. EMALS does need more electricity, but the total energy consumption is reduced. The convential power need to provide more steam for steam catapults, while provide less steam for electricity power plants for EMALS.

As I explained above, it is not true. The type 002 will be the first conventional CV with EMALS.

Of course nuclear powerplant

The reality is: Of course not.
I bet with my Ph.D in nuclear physics.

I'm not a specialist, but General Ying Zhuo said in CCTV 4 that we will only consider EMALS when nuclear reactor is ready.

We only see Steam catapult carrier in the history, not a conventional EMALS.
