The development of China's aircraft carriers has attracted much attention. Some time ago, Hong Kong's "South China Morning Post" reported that China is building two 100,000-ton nuclear-powered aircraft carriers at the same time, the aircraft carrier model is Type 004, and adopts the technology of "thorium-based molten salt dual reactor and medium-voltage DC all-electric propulsion", while the board number directly jumps over the 19th aircraft carrier, and the two nuclear-powered aircraft carriers are 20 and 21. 
At this stage, China has three aircraft carriers, namely the Liaoning, Shandong and Fujian, and has not yet built a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. The first three carriers are all conventionally powered aircraft carriers. The predecessor of the Liaoning was the second ship of the Soviet Union's Kuznetsov-class aircraft carrier, the Varyag, which was converted into China's first aircraft carrier, while the Shandong ship was the first domestic aircraft carrier independently built by China, and the Fujian ship was China's first electromagnetic catapult aircraft carrier, an 80,000-ton supercarrier, marking a new chapter for China's aircraft carriers.
On March 6, CCTV released **, when Hong Kong reporters interviewed Yuan Huazhi, political commissar of the Chinese Navy, he asked about the situation of China's aircraft carriers under construction, saying that there are no technical bottlenecks in China's aircraft carriers under construction, and whether the fourth aircraft carrier is nuclear-powered? Yuan Huazhi personally replied, saying that "it will be announced soon," and stressed that China's aircraft carrier is not built to compare with the United States, but to protect the country's sovereignty and territorial integrity and protect the country's rights and interests.
This statement has attracted great attention. There is no technical bottleneck in China's aircraft carrier under construction, which consists of two meanings, the first layer is that China's aircraft carrier under construction refers to the Shandong ship and the Fujian ship built before, if it is these two aircraft carriers, the Shandong ship has been put into service, forming a comprehensive combat effectiveness, without any technical bottlenecks, the Fujian ship is carrying out various preparations before sea trials, J-35 carrier-based aircraft and other scale models have been on the ship, and the real aircraft take-off and landing test will be carried out in the future to ensure the steady progress of various projects, at least the Fujian ship has not yet encountered a technical bottleneck.
The second layer is a new type of aircraft carrier under construction in China, whether it is a conventionally powered aircraft carrier on the 19th or a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, there is no technical bottleneck, which means that China has begun to build a fourth aircraft carrier, and the new aircraft carrier is under construction, which shows that China's aircraft carrier program has not stopped at the end of the construction of the Fujian ship.
At the same time, important information is conveyed that the fourth aircraft carrier will be announced soon, and the most anticipated is the fourth aircraft carrier, whether it is a sister ship of the Fujian ship, or a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, that is, the Type 004 aircraft carrier. If it is a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, it is the best news to realize the leap from a conventionally powered aircraft carrier to a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.
Even the conventionally powered aircraft carrier is very good, the 19th aircraft carrier is the sister ship of the Fujian ship, which can polish the new aircraft carrier to make up for the shortcomings of the Fujian ship, and the most important thing is to optimize and improve the local improvement, and carry out various adjustments of the electromagnetic catapult to avoid the defects of the US aircraft carrier Ford.
China's aircraft carrier goal is to build a more advanced aircraft carrier, and the construction of the Type 003 modified "19" ship is the final sprint for the construction of a 100,000-ton Type 004 nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. The new voyage No. 19 is likely to be built at the Dalian shipyard, improving the experience of building catapult aircraft carriers, which can also take into account the construction of two nuclear-powered aircraft carriers at the same time.
At present, the installation and commissioning of the domestic electromagnetic catapult on the Fujian ship has not encountered technical obstacles, and there is no bottleneck in the deployment of the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. As for the J-35 and Air Police-600 carrier-based aircraft, there are no obstacles compared to the polishing of the Fujian ship, which fully shows that the time is ripe for China to build a catapult nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.
Once the news of the new aircraft carrier is announced, who will spend this new aircraft carrier is bound to cause controversy on the Internet again. Just as the No. 18 was named the Fujian ship, whether the new aircraft carrier will be named the Hubei ship, the Taiwan ship, or the Guangdong ship, which is very worth looking forward to.
But no matter which province it is, it is an important part of China's aircraft carrier fleet, but it is lucky to be selected by a conventional aircraft carrier and miss the opportunity to be a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. In the face of external pressure from the deployment of five aircraft carriers by the US military in the western Pacific, China's acceleration of the construction of new aircraft carriers is also an important means to deal with external pressure, and the appearance of J-35 and Air Police-600 early warning aircraft on the Fujian ship provides valuable experience for future nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.
