CV-18 Fujian/003 CATOBAR carrier thread

[Mirabo]

I can feel the pride just by reading all these members coming out declaring to be Fujianese, ancestral Fujianese, semi-Fujianese and, who knows, pseudo-Fujianese.

Not even Fujianese but I live in Putian so that counts too right?

What a pleasant twist, was not expecting this name for the 003!

I'm not sure what the definition of a supercarrier is, but this sure is going to rub salt into many mainstream people's eyes hahahaha

I was born in Fujian. It is a great day to be a Fujianese. Feeling very proud of having a CV names after my province.

@KYli Bro that's why we understand each, don't know about @Crang, his quirkiness is on an another level.

whether she is the first super carrier not from the USN is debatable. I recall some people called the Shinano, the 70000 ton japanese carrier built on top of a incomplete yamato class battleship hull and lasted all of 10 days between commissioning and sinking, to be the first supercarrier. She certainly outweighed the Forrestal class, which almost people agree to be bonafide super carriers
