China has built 4 aircraft carriers? Not counting Waglian When was it launched?

I haven't seen the exact report, but I personally think it's unlikely, building an aircraft carrier is a project that costs a lot of money and resources, and the only country that can build several aircraft carriers at the same time in a few years is the United States during the Cold War. If you think about it, the cost of an aircraft carrier is between 4 billion and 5 billion US dollars, and it costs 20 billion US dollars to build 4 aircraft carriers, which refers only to the cost of medium-sized aircraft carriers, without considering the current state of China's technology (some aircraft carrier technologies are not yet mature). What's more, if four aircraft carriers have already been built, these four aircraft carriers will inevitably be launched continuously, how can China have enough carrier-based aircraft to load ships at that time?

At the same time, when the Varyag was just launched, China had already started building its own aircraft carrier (I personally heard that it was one), and I already thought that it was too anxious, after all, China has not yet had experience in the use of aircraft carriers, and it has not yet reached a conclusion on whether the modification of the Varyag is successful, and it began to build itself, which violates the original intention of the Varyag as an aircraft carrier experimental ship. In case there is any deviation in the design idea, it is estimated that you can't find the rhythm of crying.

If 4 ships are built directly, unless the executives of Zhongnanhai have a fever of 100 degrees.

As for the construction of a new aircraft carrier, it may be launched in 2015.

You are talking about several abandoned aircraft carriers that were previously purchased, including the Varyag, a total of four.

The Melbourne, purchased in Australia in 1986, has been dismantled and scrapped.

The scrapped Russian aircraft carrier Minsk, purchased in South Korea in 1998, is now being transformed into a theme park in Shenzhen.

The Kiev, which was purchased in Russia in 2000, is now being transformed into a park in Tianjin.

In 1998, the Varyag was purchased, and in 2002 it was transported to Dalian, where it has been renovated ever since.

As for how many are being built, no one knows.

yy。Only the aircraft carrier of the first copycat Varyag is being built in China.

Secret. Do you think you know that you have such a great ability to ask things that Americans don't know??

I don't understand these ... At least a few years later.

The journey back to China was very difficult, and in July 1999, the "Varyag" began a long voyage to China. When the aircraft carrier was preparing to pass through the Bosphorus Strait, under pressure from the United States and other NATO countries, Turkey forcibly ordered the "Varyag" to return to the Black Sea on the grounds that the aircraft carrier's hull was too large and would affect the normal navigation of other ships in the strait.

At the most difficult moment, the motherland provided the greatest help for the aircraft carrier's trip to China. In August 2001, after continuous negotiations and negotiations between China and Turkey, Turkey finally agreed to conditionally release the "Varyag", including 20 safety conditions alone, including the first payment of a risk deposit of $1 billion, a written guarantee from the Chinese government, and the number of tugboats must be doubled.

On November 1, 2001, when the Bosphorus was unusually calm, the "Varyag" finally completed its "breakthrough" and left the strait, which had been trapped for more than two years, under the support of 11 tugboats and 12 rescue and firefighting boats. After that, the "Varyag" also experienced a major storm on the way back, and the cable connecting to the tugboat was hung up, but fortunately, it was finally averted.

On March 3, 2002, after going through many difficulties and dangers, the "Varyag" finally arrived safely at the port of Dalian.

20 years ago, the Varyag returned home, and the process was so tortuous that Turkey almost ruined China's "aircraft carrier dream".

<> "China has bought 4 aircraft carriers, why was the Varyag transformed.

Aircraft carrier is the label of the modern navy, the development requirements are extremely high, once known as a great power heavy weapon, and China, as one of the world's top two powers, has two aircraft carriers in the navy, that is, the well-known Liaoning and Shandong.

The Liaoning is China's first aircraft carrier launched, its predecessor was the former Soviet Union-built Varyag, China went through 9981 difficulties to transport it back from Ukraine, and then it took nearly ten years to successfully refit it, since then China has become a country that really has an aircraft carrier.

However, it is estimated that many people do not know that before the Varyag, China also purchased another 3 aircraft carriers from the world, which makes many people wonder, since China has purchased a total of 4 aircraft carriers, why only the Varyag has been successfully transformed?

The three aircraft carriers purchased by our country before the Varyag are Melbourne, Minsk and Kiev, Melbourne is a World War II aircraft carrier, which was sold by Britain to Australia's first grandson after the war, and Minsk and Kiev are both aircraft carriers made by the former Soviet Union and given to Russia after disintegration.

The reason why China has not renovated these three aircraft carriers is, first of all, because these three aircraft carriers do not have much room for transformation. First of all, the Melbourne is a veteran who has served for decades, many of its parts and components have begun to age, and the technology is relatively backward, and the key displacement is only more than 20,000 tons, which is completely incompatible with the needs of the war.

Although the Minsk and Kiev were aircraft carriers built by the Soviet Union during the Cold War, they were after all products that the Soviet Union practiced in the early days, and it was also launched for decades, and many parts and components on them were disassembled.

Secondly, because the Varyag was the most advanced aircraft carrier technology at that time, it was also the only aircraft carrier that had not yet entered service, and it was the most complete compared to the other three aircraft carriers, including tonnage, design and other aspects, it was the most suitable aircraft carrier for China at that time, so China finally decided to transform the Varyag.

If China grits its its teeth, it can actually renovate the Minsk and Kiev, but because the Soviet Union installed a large number of missile silos on them, if you want to make better use of the space of the aircraft carrier, you have to dismantle them, which is a big project in itself, and for an aircraft carrier with a displacement of less than 50,000 tons, there is no need to move so much.

In fact, the three aircraft carriers that China purchased before were all preparing for the transformation of the Varyag, which was also a big move made by China at that time, when many countries were eyeing China as it became stronger and stronger, so we used the three aircraft carriers to give them the illusion that China is not capable of developing aircraft carriers.

Although the three aircraft carriers that have not been transformed have no chance to contribute to the Chinese Navy, they are also used to the best in China's hands, in addition to allowing China to learn aircraft carrier technology, the Minsk and Kiev have also been used by China to exert their surplus heat in the tourism industry, turning into an aircraft carrier park for tourists to visit, but it has made a lot of money for China.

In the 20th century, China purchased a total of four aircraft carriers, namely the Melbourne of Australia and the Minsk, Kiev and Varyag of the former Soviet Union (Russia). Comparing the situation of these four aircraft carriers when they were sold to China, it can be seen that the Varyag is definitely the best choice.

Let's start with the Melbourne pictured above. The ship was started in 1943 and launched at the end of World War II, and when China bought it in 1985, it was already an old guy in his forties, and it was no longer able to carry more advanced carrier-based aircraft (the carrier-based aircraft configured by the Australian army for it was the A-4 Skyhawk in the 50s), there was no need to upgrade, and the actual combat value was not great.

Moreover, before buying this aircraft carrier into China, the Australians dismantled many of the ship's ** equipment, including catapults, which is not suitable for the Chinese to transform themselves. However, as the first aircraft carrier of New China, the Melbourne has a lot of enlightenment and reference significance for China's aircraft carrier industry.

<>Kiev above, Minsk below).

The Kiev and Minsk are the lead and second ships of the Kiev-class aircraft carrier (Project 1143) of the former Soviet Union, respectively. This class of aircraft carriers is a transitional version of the "*** aircraft carrier" and "fleet aircraft carrier" in the construction of aircraft carriers in the former Soviet Union. The reason why China abandoned these two aircraft carriers is, on the one hand, because the Soviet design concept is backward, and on the other hand, because these two aircraft carriers have been completed, and the transformation is difficult and cost-effective.

So they were not chosen.

<>Unbuilt and completed Liaoning ships).

The Liaoning was formerly known as the Varyag and belonged to the third-generation Soviet aircraft carrier Kuznetsov class (type). Before the collapse of the Soviet Union, 68% of the construction was completed, which gave China a lot of room to play in terms of design concept and economic considerations.

In addition, the Varyag is the country with the largest tonnage and the largest number of aircraft carriers among the four aircraft carriers, and it is also more intact than the Melbourne. So, why not transform the Varyag?

We welcome your comments.

Because they feel that the Varyag has the most room for improvement, and the other aircraft carriers are already perfect, there is no room for improvement, so I think they chose the Varyag.

Because the imported Melbourne, Kiev and Minsk have been dismantled before they arrive in China, and the Varyag is not only structurally intact, but also has relevant drawings and materials.

Because several other aircraft carriers are no longer suitable for conversion into combat aircraft carriers, all the structural lines inside have been destroyed, and the cost performance of modification is very low, so it is only suitable for exhibitions

On August 1, 2011, the deck was cleaned and painted, and in the evening hundreds of Navy officers and sailors boarded the aircraft carrier to test the system.

On August 10, the Varyag went to sea for navigation tests, mainly to test its power take-off system, and returned on the morning of August 14, a total of five days. Upon return, refit and test work continued at the shipyard.

On November 29, 2011, he went to sea for the second time to carry out relevant scientific research experiments, and returned on December 11, which lasted for 13 days.

On December 20, 2011, the third sea trial voyage was carried out, and the return was made on December 29, which lasted for 9 days.

On January 8, 2012, China's aircraft carrier platform went to sea for the fourth test and returned on January 15, which lasted 8 days.

On April 20, 2012, at 8 o'clock again, set sail from Dalian again, went to sea for the fifth sea trial, after 11 days of sea trial, on April 30, quietly sailed back to Dalian Port in the dense fog, sea trial than expected more than one day.

On May 6, 2012, China's aircraft carrier platform carried out the sixth sea trial, and sailed back to the berth of Dalian Port at 17 o'clock on May 15, completing a nine-day sea test. From 9 a.m. on May 23 to 7 a.m. on June 1, China's aircraft carrier platform conducted its seventh sea trial, which lasted more than 200 hours and lasted for a total of 10 days.

At 9:50 a.m. on June 7, 2012, China's aircraft carrier platform began its eighth sea test, and at 10:42 a.m. on June 22, it completed the eighth sea test and returned to Dalian Port, totaling 16 days.

On the morning of July 6, 2012, the Chinese aircraft carrier platform once again left the dock of the new shipyard in Dalian, Liaoning Province, and began the 9th nautical trial. At 8:20 a.m. on July 30, China's aircraft carrier platform completed the ninth navigation test that lasted for 25 days and returned to the dock of Dalian Shipyard, which was the longest sea trial in all previous sea trials so far, lasting 25 days.

At 15:35 on August 27, 2012, after nearly a month of rest, the Chinese aircraft carrier platform sailed out of the berthing dock in Dalian, Liaoning Province, and began the 10th sea trial. At 9:30 a.m. on August 30, China's aircraft carrier platform docked smoothly at the port of Dalian, Liaoning Province after the 10th sea trial in four days. The sea trial lasted less than 70 hours.

On September 25, 2012, the Ministry of National Defense of the People's Republic of China announced that the ship was renamed Liaoning; At about 10 o'clock in the morning of the same day, the official held a handover ceremony at the Dalian Shipyard to officially deliver the No. 16 ship to the PLA Navy.

The aircraft carrier Liaoning, officially known as the Liaoning ship of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy, referred to as the Liaoning ship, with a board number of 16, is the first aircraft carrier of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy that can carry fixed-wing aircraft, originally the Marshal Kuznetsov-class aircraft carrier of the Soviet Navy, the Varyag (Russian: English: Varyag).

Brother Taiwan Liaoning has been in service for half a year, it is the Varyag you mentioned, our carrier-based aircraft have all been tested ......

It's not that China doesn't have enough technology and money, and the aircraft carrier thing is actually not that complicated. Now, if China has the right strategic objectives and good combat aircraft and escort ships, the time has come for the aircraft carrier to come out. The main reason restricting the development of China's aircraft carriers (**) is combat aircraft, and it is the engine that restricts aircraft.

If all the above points of view are realized and resolved, then the Chinese aircraft carrier will have sprung up like mushrooms, and the Varyag is being repaired! China's own construction is expected to be completed around 2010.

Didn't you go into the water early? They have all stopped at Qingdao Military Port.

Summary. If we knew the condition of the Varyag's hull, we would not have questioned why we should modify her to continue its use.

It is said that the Varyag's hull is in very good condition, and although it has been built for more than 20 years, the hull has not developed magnetism (the Varyag is made of special non-magnetic steel), the mechanical strength has not decreased, and there is no rust on the surface. This is very rare in the history of shipbuilding.

Generally speaking, the main body of the internal structure is the hull, since the most difficult is the hull, since there is a ready-made intact hull, why not use it?

Finally, this assumption does not hold true to the question of the cost of iron, but although we can build the high-quality alloy steel used in the Varyag, it is still very difficult to build such a huge hull with this excellent steel. It is not difficult to smelt special steel, and it is rare how to process special steel into finished products! The better the material, the more difficult it is to process!
