The military announced more details of the Shandong ship, and the news broadcast exposed these pictures.
CCTV News:Aircraft carrier, the country’s heavy weapon. Approved by the Central Military Commission, the first domestic aircraft carrier was named "Shandong Ship of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Navy" with the ship number "17". Since then, China Navy has entered the era of dual carriers.
China’s first domestic aircraft carrier, Shandong Ship, was delivered to the Navy at a military port in Sanya, Hainan on the afternoon of 17th. With the approval of the Central Military Commission, the first domestic aircraft carrier was named "Shandong Ship of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Navy" with the ship number "17".
When asked about the main reason why the second aircraft carrier was officially named Shandong Ship, Cheng Dewei, a spokesman for the Navy, said that the Regulations on Naming Naval Ships clearly stated that cruisers and ships of amphibious assault ship and above were named after administrative provinces and municipalities directly under the Central Government. According to this regulation, the second aircraft carrier in China was named "Shandong Ship of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Navy", taking into account various factors such as the willingness of provinces and municipalities to apply. In addition, according to the naming convention of ships, in order to keep the carrier’s ship number connected orderly and neatly, the Shandong ship’s ship number was postponed to "17" on the basis of Liaoning ship.
All the components of the first domestic aircraft carrier were made in China.
In view of "what progress and improvement has Shandong ship made in technical performance compared with Liaoning ship?" Cheng Dewei said that Shandong Ship is based on domestic independent design and construction, focusing on solving problems such as overall design of aircraft carrier, hull construction and localization of main power equipment, and improving comprehensive operational efficiency and comprehensive support level.
China’s second aircraft carrier, Shandong Ship, started construction in 2013. In 2016, the officers and men who received the aircraft carrier began to station in the aircraft carrier. On April 26, 2017, the ship was launched in Dalian Shipyard, and on May 13, 2018, it went to sea for the first time. It is reported that tens of millions of components of China’s first domestic aircraft carrier are all made in China, which has achieved completely independent design, independent construction and independent matching.
Shandong Ship Delivered to China Navy to Enter the Double Carrier Era.
Aircraft carrier, the country’s heavy weapon. On September 25th, 2012, China’s first aircraft carrier completed its construction and trial voyage as planned, and was officially delivered to the navy. It was named "Liaoning Ship of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Navy" with the ship number "16". From this day on, China has its own aircraft carrier. Only two months later, on November 23, 2012, the pilot Dai Mingmeng successfully landed the aircraft carrier Liaoning with the domestic J -15 carrier aircraft, which broke through the key flight technologies such as take-off and blocking the landing, and attracted worldwide attention.
Since then, from the offshore to the far sea, from single ship to formation, Liaoning ship has been maneuvering across the sea for many times and completed hundreds of scientific research experiments and training tasks.
On December 15, 2016, the actual use of weapons by the Liaoning ship formation, the J -15 carrier-based fighter and the Liaoning ship launched more than ten missiles of various types, and accurately hit the target.
Just 10 days after the actual use of weapons exercises, the Liaoning carrier formation entered the western Pacific through the Miyako Strait, breaking through the first island chain for the first time to carry out cross-regional offshore training. Under the harsh sea conditions and climate conditions, several batches of J -15 carrier-based fighters took off from the flight deck of Liaoning ship, and carried out a number of training tasks such as refueling and air confrontation in the air. After completing the training tasks, they stopped the ship in Liaoning ship and tempered the integration ability of aircraft carriers.
On April 12, 2018, after participating in the maritime military parade held by the Central Military Commission in the South China Sea, the Liaoning ship immediately went to the training ground from the parade ground. Liaoning carrier formation has intensively carried out multi-course training in the South China Sea and the Western Pacific Ocean, and the systematic training of carrier formation has gradually normalized.
Lu Qiangqiang, Deputy Captain of Liaoning Navy:From the beginning, we put forward that Liaoning ship is a training ship for test ships, and now it has gradually formed its combat capability. I think this is what all officers and men expect to see, and it is also what Chinese people want to see. Then it should be said that through the improvement of our equipment and the improvement of training level in recent years, we have become more and more confident. Our Liaoning ship is changing from a training ship and a test ship to a fighting ship, and I believe this process should be faster and faster.
