New satellite imagery has shown that China may have started construction on a new aircraft carrier. This would be their second one, in addition to refurbished Soviet-era flattop they finished sea trials with last year. When the construction is finished, it’ll be China’s first carrier made in their country. But images leaked from The National Interest shows that it doesn’t look very much like a carrier at all, which is to be expected, considering that China doesn’t have the experience or skill to make anything like modern U.S. carriers. Perhaps this is why they’re so interested in hacking American intelligence.

Tyler, are you seriously that dumb or are you joking? There are no ships bigger than any aircraft carrier. Japan isn’t even a military nation anymore, so they have no reason to build ships. South Korea’s navy consists of Cruisers and light cruisers.. as their main enemy is right beside them. The U.S. is literally the only country who can build a super carrier and actually use it. We also have super destroyers too, if I’m not mistaken
And you’re falling into the Trap warned about in The Art of War which by the way was written by a Chinese man never underestimate your enemy
No doubt the US is on the cutting edge of military tech, but China can build an aircraft carrier. It might be using last generation tech, but they can build one. No doubt.
They didn’t even build that one. They bought the hull from the Ukraine. It was an unfinished carrier from the old Soviet Union before it’s collapse.
Not unusual for the Chinese they are very good at reverse engineering. Remember they reversed engineered our commercial sat rockets into a man orbital mission. They had not problem doing the same on the carrier thier second one is home built

The looooooove boat!
It’s junk just like everything they make!!
I think we overestimate the Chinese somewhat like we did the Russian military! After the wall came down we learned that they were vastly inferior!!
Sound just like the people in 1941 who said nothing to worry about from the Japanese they are a silly little people who can fly planes because of the slant eyes and only an idiot who didn’t know how inferior they were would believe they could threaten the great American Navy
