Re: new chinese aircraft carrier!
This goes against my entire understanding of the Chinese carrier projects.

Re: new chinese aircraft carrier!
Have you ever even been on a US carrier? If China made a carrier that big--and that's a big "if"--they'd have plenty of space. They just won't. Wanna know why? They're primarily concerned with carriers within the First Island Chain: sure, they would like global reach, but they have to grow into it. A carrier that big makes no sense for such a small geographic mission.VNAF ONE wrote:Looks too cramped for space in my opinion. Parallel runways with almost no room on the sides to even move around would pose problems in my opinion. The supercarrier has at least a little room for movement with the catapults and runway operating at the same time. With this they won't be able to unless they close one or another down.

Re: new chinese aircraft carrier!
The bigger issue is that they bought a handful of landing systems for carriers from the Russians, and have expressed interest in a natively-constructed CATOBAR carriers. We'll see. Regardless, they have (and won't have) anything like the first photo.
Think about it this way: they always critique us for having gigantic carriers that are so damn vulnerable (in war games, the Dutch have sunk our carriers). Think of them with that kind of carrier.

Re: new chinese aircraft carrier!
But yeah you've made a good point.
I've seen these pictures before of this alledged future aircraft carrier for the PLAN in the Project Reality forums and it was said there that this was nothing more than a 3-D model from a 3-D artist who made this thing for either his portofolio or simply out of hobby. It is NOT an actual aircraft carrier project. (Or perhaps that is what "they" want us to think )
Anyway, what's almost for certain is that the PLA is going to build at least 2 more aircraft carriers of the Admiral Kuznetsov class (Well... at the very least a Chinese version of the Kuznetsov). After those there's some speculation that China could develope a bigger indigenous aircraft carrier based upon the blueprints of the Ulyanovsk supercarrier class which the soviets/russians never got to finish.
Time will tell how the chinese will develope their future aircraft carrier fleets.
One thing is for sure... China's neighbours will be getting very nervous in upcoming years.

Re: new chinese aircraft carrier!
If I may ask, how is that an example of inefficiency?

Re: new chinese aircraft carrier!
Jesus Christ, kids. Use your fucking noodles.
It is an artist's rendering of a future Chinese blue-water carrier with future Chinese tech onboard. It took me exactly three neurons to figure that out, and I'm appalled that you kids are even throwing the slightest bit of thought into this thing's realism. As has already been stated, not only is it NOT FUCKING REAL, but it's also FUCKING PROPAGANDA. I'd prescribe something for your cranial-rectal inversion, but I'm afraid you'd have no method of administering it through your thick skull and pasty skin.

Re: new chinese aircraft carrier!
If this is not a new diagram evidently and thus can be ignored for that and many other reasons.
