New satellite imagery has shown that China may have started construction on a new aircraft carrier. This would be their second one, in addition to refurbished Soviet-era flattop they finished sea trials with last year. When the construction is finished, it’ll be China’s first carrier made in their country. But images leaked from The National Interest shows that it doesn’t look very much like a carrier at all, which is to be expected, considering that China doesn’t have the experience or skill to make anything like modern U.S. carriers. Perhaps this is why they’re so interested in hacking American intelligence.

This is a old Russian junk pile the Chinese gave a paint job. It’s not gonna ever going to see a battle its for them to practice landing on. That’s it. To run drills.
What a rip.old russian scrap with paint job. OMG
Dont matter what it is,we can sink it.
Walmart will be selling them soon.
That particular styled carrier won’t allow a fully loaded airplane to fly off the decks, as it does not have a catapult system like a us carrier does, hence the ramp. So the jets would have to refuel sooner, and carry less armaments…
Not really the biggest threat.
That particular carrier is nearly useless. If a fighter takes off from that flight deck it cannot be fully loaded. The aircrafts suspension will not allow it. It s pretty but almost useless.
Lololol
It doesn’t matter if they have the technology, we’ll give it to them in a couple years
That’s fine our navy will just blow it out of the water.
This is a carrier bought from Russia to fly short take off jets and helicopters, it is several generations behind in ability as compared to American carriers, but it gave them a start and dominates their immediate area.
