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.

The design is ugly as hell
A submarine could sink it though right?
It’s for launching harrier type jump jets.
Why is the number 16 on it if they only have 2
That’s incorrect. Before the Russians sold it to China it operated full size combat jets. Naval versions of SU-27’s and Mig-29’s operated from the decks. Those are not jump jets like the Harrier.
These are not even close to Harrier’s. They far exceed the Harrier in capability.
Nope!
Okay you got me – ramp deck assist.
And he was right when Bill Clinton was the president they sold bunch of American hardware to China not only that they also sold the future of this nation. So we should vote Hillary Clinton do finish the job.
China have 80 subs fyi
