So, does anyone knows what is liaoning´s true tonnage (standart and full) and what is the best site to get ships tonnage?
One way to discriminate is to look at length conversion. Military Factory gives the length as 1000' and convert it to 304.8 meters, which is exact and unlikely for a ship not designed in a country still using old fashioned measures. Military Today has 305 meters, sinodefence.com 304.5 meters, so the same size rounded off and not based on some serious source. Global Security gives very wide margins so isn't useful either. Remains Jeff Head with 992' , the only one that doesn't look unlikely. You might pm Jeff to ask how he estimated the dimensions and displacements of Liaoning.

What's happening with the Liaoning? Seems we're not getting any pictures or news for a while now.

Well according to some unreliable news sources Liaoning was docked in Syria..of course we all know this is pure bovine droppings..

October 1 through October 7 are holidays for National Day. You usually see people on vacation a few days before and after these days, as well as the days themselves. So be patient....

And September 27 was Moon Festival, to boot.
