China s first aircraft carrier is about to be launched, is that aircraft carrier good?

Lao Wa was launched more than 20 years ago, and no matter any ship in any country, there is only one serious thing like launching, and it is impossible to have 2 times, don't be fooled by the five cents in the network.

After all, after the introduction of old tiles, it is very important to make a decision because of the need for old tiles for a period of time.

For China's navy, Lao Wa really not only solves the problem of whether there are aircraft carriers, nor is it a problem of the image of a great power (after all, it is a bit embarrassing to use a former Soviet aircraft carrier launched 23 years ago as the first aircraft carrier), and the most fundamental thing is to focus on solving a series of gaps such as aircraft carrier crew training, maritime aviation operations, and aircraft carrier formation operations.

Let's put it this way, a person who is dying of hunger cares whether someone else gives him a nest or a steamed bun or a bread? Therefore, it is too one-sided and extreme to say that the old tile is not good.

Well, I can't evaluate whether it's good or bad, but I have to have a reference, and it's not very good compared to the Nimitz-class aircraft carriers, but it's still advantageous compared to Ah San.

Then again, whether it's good or not is also your own thing, and what you make yourself is the best, how do you say that? The golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as their old nests, right?

China bought a hull from the former Soviet Union in the nineties, which was originally called "Varyag". There is a big gap between the design idea and the construction level and the world's advanced thinking. It was later refitted at the Dalian Shipyard.

It belongs to the intermediate class aircraft carrier. Due to the absence of a catapult, the combat radius of a combat aircraft is greatly limited. To sum up, China's first aircraft carrier should be the first aircraft carrier training ship. 5

Of course, China's first aircraft carrier is looking forward to it.

No matter how good it is, it must work, it must be strong, it is a symbol of my towering China.

As of June 17, 2022, China currently has three aircraft carriers.

The first aircraft carrier "Liaoning" was rebuilt from the Ukrainian "Wagryan".

Shandong" is the first aircraft carrier No. 17 independently developed and built by China, which was officially launched in Dalian on April 26, 2017, and conducted sea trials on May 13, 2018. On December 17, 2019, it was officially delivered to the Navy in Sanya, Hainan.

The launching and naming ceremony of China's third aircraft carrier was held at the Jiangnan Shipyard of China Shipbuilding Group on the morning of June 17, 2022. At 11 o'clock, the naming ceremony began, the national anthem of the People's Republic of China was sung, and the five-star red flag was raised. At the ceremony, the chief officer of the receiving unit was awarded a naming certificate, and military and local leaders jointly cut the ribbon for the launch of China's third aircraft carrier.

Then the bottle throwing salute was carried out, the champagne bottle smashed into the bow of the ship, the two sides sprayed brilliant ribbons, the ship whistled, the dock door opened, and the aircraft carrier slowly moved out of the dock. The launching ceremony ended with the singing of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. With the approval of the Military Commission, China's third aircraft carrier was named "Fujian Ship of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy", with the port number "18".

<> "Has any country ever built an underwater aircraft carrier?"

"Underwater aircraft carrier" is a figurative statement, and there are examples of this saying from World War II. In the early morning of September 9, 1942, a raging fire suddenly ignited in the reckless dense forest of the Rocky Mountains on the west coast of the United States. The wildfire burned really strangely, but soon a patrolling American bomber discovered the "accident":

It turned out to be a small Japanese Zero seaplane and a Japanese I-25 submarine anchored 25 nautical miles off the west coast of the United States.

The American bomber, which had spotted its prey, sped forward and dropped three bombs in quick succession. It is a pity that the Japanese I-25 submarine has already dived into the water with the disassembled aircraft and escaped. Inspired by this, the Japanese Navy decided to build a giant submarine capable of carrying multiple water attack aircraft, the "Underwater Aircraft Carrier", and use it to attack port bases and important military facilities on the West Coast of the United States.

The Japanese Navy named the newly-built submarine the I-400, and it adopted a left-right asymmetrical design: on the starboard side of the upper deck, there was a collection of three water attack aircraft, and on the port side of the boat, a command cabin and a periscope; There is also a tipping crane on the port side of the foredeck.

The most peculiar thing is that there is a 26-meter-long catapult at the front of the bow, which can be used by various seaplanes on board the boat to take off. In addition to the water flying potato as the first machine, the I-400 class submarine is equipped with 8 torpedo tubes at the head, which are arranged in a fan shape; 1 366-mm gun in the stern; Above the seaplane collection there are also 3 triple mounted machine guns.

Japan initially planned to build 18 IL-400 class "underwater aircraft carriers", but by the time Japan was about to surrender in 1945, only three IL-400 class ships were nearing completion. After the Second World War, the development of "underwater aircraft carriers" fell silent for about 30 years. It was only in the mid-70s of the 20th century that the program for the development of "underwater aircraft carriers" was able to re-emerge.

Although the navies of some countries appreciate aircraft carriers with large tonnage, large number of aircraft, and strong attack power, they have shortcomings such as too large targets, too high cost, poor concealment, and their own escort capabilities. Underwater submarines can make up for these shortcomings, but they also have the shortcomings of a limited number of carriers.

Tests have proved that the "underwater aircraft carrier" can effectively overcome the shortcomings of both, maximize the advantages of both, and perfectly achieve a combination. Although underwater aircraft carriers have great application potential, they are not easy to realize, and there are still many technical problems to be solved. For example, due to the development of underwater communication technology, underwater communication technology is far more difficult than aerial communication, so it is difficult to form a climate in the short term.
