HHP25, the marine nuclear power platform, is being built by Bohai Heavy Industry. The main part will be completed during this year. 20K-tons icebreaker is under tender, all details are unknown. Dalian will upgrade its technology after CV17 to have nuclear power production capacity, and then produce nuclear-power aircraft carrier which is under design now.

The blogger believes that the Jiangnan Shipyard has started the construction of the type 003 conventional power carrier and has 2 orders. All will be completed in 2025. Dalian will begin construction of type 005 and 006 nuclear-powered aircraft carrier around 2022.

That's just silly. I can understand asking for credit and we should give credit and gratitude to the original owner. But if you post photos online don't expect them to stay at one place as you wish. It's like a beautiful lady goes naked in the street and then yell at men "Don't look! If you look you are scumbag!".

"""Han Brothers today's material, people may be afraid to drink tea so used a lot of black language, so please forgive me.

The general idea is that the ship will begin closing up in November this year and will soon be underwater.

The four ship was officially launched in May. President Xi had seen it before receiving Comrade Xiao Jin in Dalian. By August next year, when the 001 and 002 are all gone, we can see the segmentation in the dock.

The first two of the 003 carriers have a very high starting point, which is the true blue star number one. After that, each batch will have some improvements and improvements, so it is more able to maintain an absolute leading position in the world.""""

China has launched work on building its third aircraft carrier, Xinhua News Agency reported on Sunday.

In an article published on its WeChat account, Xinhua said that as the nation’s second, and the first domestically designed, carrier has undergone sea trials, a “new-generation carrier” is being constructed at the shipyard as per schedule.

The article, which was intended to mark the sixth anniversary of the first takeoff and landing by a Chinese fighter on the country’s first carrier CNS Liaoning, does not elaborate on the program of the “new-generation carrier”, which is believed to be the country’s third carrier. But the article is the first official confirmation.

Chinese weapons enthusiasts and foreign observers have long asserted that China has begun to build its third carrier at China State Shipbuilding Corp’s Jiangnan Shipyard Group in Shanghai, speculating that it will be bigger and mightier than the Liaoning and the second carrier, which is yet to be named.

A publicity officer at China State Shipbuilding Corp’s headquarters in Beijing refused to comment on the matter.

Publicity officers of the People’s Liberation Army Navy could not be reached on Monday morning.
