The Chinese Navy announced Monday that carrier-based aircraft J-15T, J-35 and KongJing-600 have successfully completed their inaugural electromagnetic catapult-assisted takeoff and arrested landing trainings on aircraft carrier, the Fujian. The success showed that China's first domestically built catapult-equipped aircraft carrier has obtained electromagnetic catapult launch and recovery capabilities, marking another breakthrough in the development of China's aircraft carriers. The Fujian is China’s first – and the world’s second after America’s USS Gerald R. Ford – aircraft carrier equipped with electromagnetic catapults.

BREAKING: China has carried out its first catapult-assisted launch and arrested landing drills aboard on an aircraft carrier. The Fujian is China’s 3rd aircraft carrier and first carrier with electromagnetic aircraft launch system (EMALS) catapults, which enable heavier payloads and higher sortie rates compared to the ski-jump ramps on its predecessors, Liaoning and Shandong. Footage shows J-15T and J-35 fighter jets taking off from the deck as well as KJ-600 AEW&C planes. The footage proves that China is now the second nation in the world (after the U.S.) operating an EMALS aircraft carrier. 🇨🇳🇺🇸

"It takes only 2 seconds for carrier-based fighters to take off, but we have been waiting for this moment for 20 years." China disclosed close-up shots and an introduction of the electromagnetic catapult device on China’s Fujian 18 aircraft carrier. This core catapult system is fully self-designed, self-developed, and self-made by Chinese scientists from scratch without any technical reference.

Raw footage of China's Liaoning carrier battlegroup conducting operations in the Western Pacific. Some important observations: 🔹Japan tried to follow the carrier battlegroup, but was comprehensively outmaneuvered, japanese systems jammed and lost track of the carrier battlegroup for over 20 days. 🔹The wheel chocks (Red flaps that stops the wheel of the aircraft before taking off) was widened, resulting in a narrower gap, allowing the J-35 to be operated from the 2 STOBAR carriers. 🔹Type-054B frigate took its first far seas operation. 🔹Air force-Navy interoperability, PLA air force YY-20 air refueling tanker, was seen operating within the navy system, extending the range of the J-15T. 🔹J-15T (the catapult launched version) makes their debut on the Liaoning officially. J-15T is basically a completely new aircraft, with new radars, materials and internal structure/systems. Giving it 4.5++ Gen capabilities. 🔹The J-35 will be responsible for gaining air superiority at sea and J-15T responsible for multirole missions along with the J-15DH electronic warfare fighter, they will form a formidable air wing onboard of the CNS 16 Liaoning and CNS 17 Shandong. Giving the 2 Ski-jump carrier a comprehensive multi-mission air wing.

The future of warfare isn't coming....it's already here. The Northrop Grumman X-47B is a tailless stealth drone that launched, landed, taxied, and operated autonomously aboard a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier. First unmanned aircraft to catapult launch and trap aboard a carrier in 2013. Watch it taxi with the yellow shirts, launch into the blue, and operate seamlessly alongside crewed fighter jets. The age of autonomous carrier aviation began years ago... and most people still don't realize it. 📹:

🚨🇨🇳 PENTAGON IN PANIC: CHINESE CARRIERS NOW EQUIPPED WITH FIFTH-GENERATION J-35s State media confirmed the J-35 is adapting to ski-jump launches on Liaoning and Shandong, extending fifth-gen capabilities across China’s entire carrier fleet. 🔸 China’s J-35 stealth fighters are now integrating into the air wings of both Liaoning and Shandong, creating three operational fifth-gen carriers with mixed stealth-strike power. 🔸 The J-35 has successfully adapted to Liaoning’s ski-jump system alongside the new J-15T fighter during far-seas training, CCTV’s report. 🔸 The new mixed air wings combine J-35 stealth, J-15B long-range strike, and J-15D electronic warfare support for vastly improved combat flexibility. 🔸 Two additional supercarriers currently under construction, plus active sixth-gen fighter testing, put China more than a decade ahead of the US in carrier aviation. How do you think the U.S. can counter it?

‼️‼️🇨🇳🇺🇲 A recent Pentagon assessment warns that People’s Liberation Army Navy is on track to surpass the United States Navy in submarine strength by 2035 and could match U.S. aircraft carrier numbers within the same timeframe. While Washington retains a qualitative edge through its nuclear-powered carrier fleet, China’s rapid shipbuilding pace is steadily closing the gap. The report highlights that China’s submarine fleet is expected to continue expanding as U.S. submarine numbers dip before stabilizing later in the decade. This projected shift is raising growing concern in the Pentagon over Beijing’s accelerating naval modernization and its implications for the balance of power in the Indo-Pacific.

This aircraft just checked off one of the toughest milestones on its path to aircraft carrier operations. 🚀 The U.S. Navy's MQ-25A Stingray successfully completed its second test flight, including its first-ever airborne landing gear cycles proving another critical piece of its autonomous flight system. Built to refuel carrier-based fighters without a pilot onboard, the MQ-25 is set to expand the striking range of the U.S. Navy's air wings and redefine how future carrier operations are conducted. The age of autonomous naval aviation isn't coming, it's already being tested.

‼️🇨🇳 China has started construction of its fourth Type 004 aircraft carrier, which will become the first nuclear-powered surface combatant of the PRC. According to reports, the new aircraft carrier with a displacement of 110-120 thousand tons is being built at a shipyard in Dalian and is designed as a direct competitor to the American Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carriers. Unlike previous Chinese ships, the Type 004 will combine a nuclear power plant (based on Longwei reactors) with electromagnetic catapults and a full-size deck, providing virtually unlimited sailing range. The Type 004 is expected to carry an air group of more than 90 aircraft, including 24-30 J-15T fighters and more than 20 fifth-generation J-35 aircraft, as well as KJ-600 AWACS planes and unmanned aerial vehicles. Thus, all this significantly exceeds the capabilities of previous Chinese aircraft carriers (Liaoning, Shandong, Fujian), which are limited either by the absence of catapults or equipped with conventional power plants. The PLA Navy also plans that the Type 004, accompanied by the latest Type 055A/B destroyers and Type 095 submarines, will be able to project power far beyond China's coastal waters, creating a threat to the strategic superiority of the United States on the world’s oceans.
