I just realized that with the advent of ChatGPT the bar for defense writers has gotten even lower.
00X/004 future nuclear CATOBAR carrier thread

FTFY.
In any case, I just realized what thread we're in lol.
Let's cease our roasting of that particular article and the offshoot roasting.
We might need to seriously consider the possibility that they would put 8 sub reactor in their first CVN.
Ps. Though I also don't think we would necessarily be able to see or identify a land-based test reactor before they put it in an actual carrier (or ever).
No, not really.

That was necessary in the 1960s, but it is not necessary in the 2020s.
Where is this supposed to be? They capped the nuclear reactor main building so I would say this project is like two years from completion.
Also, for what it's worth, here is a picture of the current status of Linglong One (ACP100) 125 MWe reactor in Hainan.
Some rumor circling around since the end of last year but only some screenshots without link to official sources. Take it with a grain of salt but very likely to be authentic though.
They are mainly about a commend letter for an employee from other company to develop Project AH for 703rd Research Institute CSIC, the turbine designing branch of CSIC.
The said employee was the project manager from a subsystem company to develop Project AH for 703 and the letter also said the company has experience in Project TS, A02 and A03.
Project TS probably stands for "testing" project in CV16.
A02 and A03, as everyone has already known, is the turbine development codename for CV17 and CV18.
Meanwhile, it should have been A04 consequently if the next CV was still a conventional one. However the codename has been changed to "Project AH" where H is very likely to stand for "Nuclear."
The full name for the subsystem is

Honestly I have no idea what it means and the commend letter was sent on 08/31/2022.
