Only US is ahead of China in terms of carrier operations or maybe France could challenge for the 2nd spot.
Indian's always boasted about their 5 decades of carrier operations, but I've never seen them doing night training in full pitch black conditions.

China has 2 carriers

But France has fixed wing Hawkeye for AWACS

This extends the eyes and ears of the carrier strike group

In a high threat environment China will need a serious number of escorts like Type 055 until the KJ-600 is ready

. Three minutes of night operations, mostly J-15 take-offs and landings.

We've been demanding/challenging/asking to see evidence of PLAN doing night take-offs and landings on Liaoning for some times now. When the evidence finally got released, they appear to be rather routine and nothing out of the ordinary. It's just another milestone in China's journey towards operating a full-blown carrier force.
