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

From 逆襲 @horobeyo on 24 May:

浮式装置已在新港池码头舾装

风雨棚拆了,露天了,等一波新卫星图就能测量船体长度了

The floating platform has been outfitted at the Xingang (Newport) basin quay.

The canopy [that covered the hull modules of carrier 003] has been demolished. It's out in the open. Wait for a new satellite image to measure the length of the ship.

Finally what?

It is about the cooperation between JN and Bohai on a project with very high priority, and it should be none other than the Type 003.

Bohai is the shipyard where all China’s nuclear subs were built, and this also implies that they are now preparing to install the nuclear reactors into the hull of the Type 003.

“渤船集团”微信公众号5月27日的推送,江南造船厂总经理一行去渤船进行交流访问。
一家从未涉及核动力舰艇建造的船厂派出代表团,去访问一家专攻核动力甚至于说把舰艇核动力技术当做看家本领的船厂。再联系当下江南造船厂内某在建大型船舶的建造时间节点,不得不让人浮想联翩:这次的访问难道真的只是一次简单的例行互访吗?还是其中另有隐情?

The WeChat official account of the Bohai Shipping Group was launched in May 27th, and the general manager of Jiangnan Shipyard, Huang Wenfei and delegation went to the Bohai Shipyard for an exchange visit.
A shipyard never involved in nuclear power ship construction sent a delegation to visit a shipyard that specializes in nuclear power and even regards nuclear power technology of ships as its own skill. Then, in connection with the construction time node of a large-scale ship under construction in Jiangnan Shipyard, we have to imagine: is this visit really just a simple routine exchange visit? Or is there something else in it?

... or in preparation for the Type 004 CVN?

The CSSC had already started the cooperation with the CNNC back in January 2017, prior the construction of the Type 003.

CNNC = provide the nuclear reactor, and the cooperation started in 2017

Bohai shipyard = provide the assistance about the installation of the nuclear reactor, and the cooperation started in 2019

So what are we saying 003 will have nuclear power and EMALS ?

that would be a huge risk to commission two new technologies together just look at Ford class

Everything has its first time.

Even the conventional carrier with the EMALS is also unprecedented in the history, and perhaps more difficult to achieve than its nuclear counterpart.

Yes, but having 2 critical parts - installing the nuclear power engine on CV and EMALS for first time simultaneously are just too risky for the project and following maintenance.

Let's not be over-optimistic like Indian fanboys

So in your way of thinking, if the US failed then no one else can succeed?

Or put it into another line: Only if the US does it right, then it's the correct direction to go???

If they only try to understand China better.
One should investigate the propulsion system of the Type 055. It is closely guarded state secret. But there are info being leaked online.
It is medium voltage suggesting IEPS.
China is already in the next level esp. in SSBN.
We have heard of China innovative shaftless pumpjet.
Watching... and waiting.

Oh please Can you please stop acting

China has built how many carriers? So far 1

US has built how many over 80 and over a dozen nuclear powered ones

You got more experience with one than someone who has built over dozen or 80? No definitely no

You have to take into account that the US procurement program is a complete joke and that it's completely corrupted by the defense contractors who juice it like a lemon, plus China has a bigger experience in making huge advancements at once successfully compared to the US. Also, encountering difficulties with the 003 might be a risk China is willing to take if it means the 004 will be built sooner, they might prefer to put the risk on 003 and use it as a technological test bed before refining the design for the 004.
