The Fujian is the third aircraft carrier of the Chinese Navy and the second aircraft carrier developed by China itself, which shows the development of China's aerospace and the improvement of shipbuilding level. However, regarding China's fourth aircraft carrier, netizens have different expectations and speculations, and the most eye-catching is whether the ship will use nuclear energy to achieve the advantages of staying power and rapid take-off, and improve China's long-sea combat capabilities.
As the most representative military ** of the United States, the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier has 11 nuclear submarines as the core, and maintains a strong military strength in the world. The biggest advantage of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier is that it does not need to be refueled frequently, it can operate long distances in the ocean, and it takes only a small time from docking to takeoff, and it can respond quickly. Many Chinese netizens are jealous and jealous of this, and they are also looking forward to China's early acquisition of a nuclear submarine as a way to strengthen its military power and position in the world.
So, will China be able to create a nuclear aircraft carrier? This is a complex and complex issue. First of all, nuclear power is a very complex technology, which has a considerable degree of requirements for the design of nuclear power plants, the processing of nuclear materials, the protection of radioactive materials, and the management of nuclear energy. China has achieved quite good results in nuclear power research, and even nuclear-powered container ships have been built, but there are still many scientific and technological difficulties and dangers to be overcome in order to apply it to aircraft carriers.
Second, the nuclear energy system is not just an independent part, but should form a comprehensive aircraft carrier with other supporting equipment. This includes the overall planning, airframe layout, power distribution, power and control, landing, take-off and landing, operation and command of the entire aircraft carrier. In this regard, China still needs to continue to study and accumulate, and not blindly copy the US approach, but to find a path that conforms to its own development laws.
Third, the construction of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier is not only a technical issue, but also an important strategic issue, which has a bearing on a country's security, international obligations, environmental protection, and long-term development. To build and operate a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, it is necessary to have sufficient financial resources, political will, the legal system, popular recognition, and international cooperation. At the same time, in order to prevent nuclear contamination and the occurrence of nuclear accidents, it is also necessary to establish a complete set of management systems. China should also have a clear understanding and plan for this, and not only see the benefits of nuclear aircraft carriers, but ignore the costs and dangers of nuclear energy.
Therefore, it is not completely impossible for China to have the ability to build a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, but it is not completely hopeless, and it is necessary to be fully prepared and make the right decision, and it must not be rushed or given up lightly. At present, China still needs to continuously improve and optimize the effectiveness and effectiveness of traditional powered aircraft carriers to overcome the problems of short take-off period and short range, and improve their combat effectiveness and reliability. In this process, China should also intensify the research and testing of nuclear power equipment, obtain independent intellectual property rights as soon as possible, and lay a good foundation for China to build a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in the future. Only in this way will China be able to make the right choice in building nuclear submarines, so that our national dream can truly become a reality.
