Very good.

They are now placing a model on the carrier simulation at Wuhan.

I wonder f they have designed it to be able to get off the deck of the CV-16 and CV-17? That would be a tremendous development for the Chinese if they have.

Otherwise it is surely planned for CV-18.

If KJ-600 ever operates from CV-16 or -17 I think it will be because those vessels have been fitted with catapults as part of a major mid-life overhaul.

At 30knots full head wind from the waist position they should be able to take of KJ-600 surely

Where is that graph that showed each take off position with total take weight vs knots ?

A turboprop aircraft like this will have a good acceleration at low air speed. With the long take off run and ski ramp and a good wind over deck take off will likely not be a problem. I even read that Northrop-Grumman has told the Indian Navy that its E-2D could take off from Vikramaditya which is smaller than Liaoning.

Off the top of my head what was the length of the waist position take off point ? 200metres ?

KJ-600 at 30 tons can take off sure
