Chinese NavyThe thirdAircraft carriers"Fujian" left the harbor under the tow of a number of tugboats, which isThe aircraft carrier was launchedThe action of leaving the port pool for the first time since it was puzzling. There has been speculation that the Fujian may be about to undergo its first sea trials, but others wonder if there are other hidden motives. After all, every move of the "Fujian" is in the spotlight. Since its launch on 17 June last year, the "Fujian" has been busy carrying out outfitting work while quickly completing relevant test work. Now it seems that the "Fujian ship" has basically completed the outfitting work, 3 articlesElectromagnetic catapultIt has also been installed and the shed will be dismantled, so that it will be madeElectromagnetic catapultThe true face is revealed. The scaffolding on the ship island was also dismantled, and the ship was fully equipped with large conventional powerAircraft carriersShow it to everyone. The "Fujian Ship" has also completed the verification test of the hull tilt and the catapult trolley, and fortunate netizens even photographed the "Fujian Ship" when they were on a civil airlinerElectromagnetic catapultThe picture of the catapult car triggered more pairsAircraft carriersattention. All of themChinese NavyAircraft carriersA milestone in the history of developmentMajor events。Recently, the deck of the "Fujian ship" also appearedChinese NavyA full-scale model of the new generation J-35 carrier-based fighter, all these signs indicate that the outfitting and testing of the "Fujian" is progressing smoothly and is progressing step by step.
However, we have questions about the next move of the "Fujian ship". Why did the Fujian ship leave the harbor?There are two possible options: one is to conduct sea trials directly, in accordance withChinese NavyThe practice of ship construction, the first twoAircraft carriersIt was all painted before the first sea trialsNavyThe standard livery was painted, and the marking was completed on the deck, and everything was ready before sailing. However, this time the shadow of the deck line was still not visible on the deck of the "Fujian ship", so we temporarily ruled out the possibility of direct sea trials. The second is to re-enter the dock, and some people suspect that the electromagnetic catapult system of the "Fujian ship" may be malfunctioning. However, I think such a possibility is almost non-existent. China's self-developed electromagnetic catapult system has undergone a large number of land simulation tests and real aircraft ejection tests, and only fully verified ejection systems can be put on ships. Judging by the actual situation of the "Fujian ship" catapult trolley some time ago,Electromagnetic catapultThe trolley was successfully catapulted into the water, everything worked fine, there were no technical problems. Otherwise, the "Fujian" will not continue its subsequent outfitting and testing work. Therefore, we conclude that the current situation is such that the "Fujian" is quite likely to enter the dock for painting and painting work. Considering that the "Fujian" has been launched for a year and a half, it not only needs to paint and mark the deck, but also to derust and clean the underwater hull. All of this needs to be done in the dockyard for painting, not just in the harbor. This is also built by the Chinese shipbuilding industryAircraft carriersconventions. AsChinese NavyDisplacementA large surface combat ship of more than 80,000 tons, the "Fujian Ship" is inAircraft carriersThere have been many firsts in the history of development, so it is understandable that outfitting and testing work is relatively long. This is the embodiment of the law of equipment development and the law of science. We look forward to the "Fujian ship" unveiling in front of the Chinese people with a new attitude, even if it is a little later, we are not worried, the day of the first sea trial is infinitely close, let us look forward to that sacred moment together.

It has surpassed the maritime power of countries such as the United Kingdom, Russia, Italy, Japan, and India, and is second only to the United States, which is the first in the worldNavyChinese NavyInAircraft carriersThe construction technology and technology have been fully mastered, and the team of designers and construction team has been trained.

From the perspective of the country's comprehensive strength, the completion and commissioning of the Fujian ship will further enhance China's international status and sea power status, marking that China has become one of the few in the worldAircraft carriersOne of the countries of strength. Aircraft carriersAs a symbol of maritime presence and national image, it will provide China with more opportunities for international cooperation, enhance its international discourse and security needs, and further consolidate China's status as a major country.
In short, the launching of the Fujian ship and the upcoming sea trials meanChinese NavyAircraft carriersThe cause has made major breakthroughs and milestones. The completion and commissioning of the Fujian ship will further enhance China's international status and sea power status, and will provide a basis forChinese Navyprovides strong strategic support and guarantee for modernization. At the same time, the commissioning of the Fujian ship will also provide China with more opportunities for international cooperation, enhance the international discourse and support needs. We have reason to be confident in the future of the Fujian ship and expect it to be thereChinese Navydevelopment and play a greater role in the cause.
