China makes significant progress in developing aircraft carrier over past decade

Описание: It has been ten years since China's first aircraft carrier Liaoning was put into commission.

China has made groundbreaking and significant achievement in the development of its naval fleet over the past decade by launching two domestically built aircraft carriers.

Recently, aircraft carrier Liaoning with a number of J-15 fighter jets on board conducted an exercise in northeast China's Bohai Sea, aiming at testing the combat capacity of the carrier-based aircraft.

Aircraft carrier Liaoning was delivered and commissioned to the People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy in September 2012.

Later in April 2017, China launched its second aircraft carrier Shandong, also the first domestically built carrier.

Shandong completed a series of training such as cross-sea maneuvers and formation tactics in less than three years.

China's third aircraft, home-built Fujian, is conducting mooring trials as scheduled after being launched in June this year.

Meanwhile, other equipment have been upgraded, such as China's first Type 055 guided-missile destroyer Nanchang, Type 901 comprehensive supply ship Hulunhu and new carrier-based aircraft.
