There is such thing as variable speed control It was novelty in 60's But now they come down in price and you can get it for motor of all sizes from small to 15000HP. And China is the biggest producer of Motor and motor control and exported zillion of them world wide

You make two assumption:
1. The lift is electrically driven.
2. Anyone want to spend money, space,weight ,maintenance requirement and risk of malfunction for a component that has no practical use.

C'mon, it is a warship,not a luxury car with lot of extras.

Ahh guys.. I served aboard USS Nimitz in 1991. USS America in 1981. USS Hancock in 1975. USS Midway in '73 & '74. USS John F Kennedy in '72 & '73. The aircraft elevators aboard all USN CVNs have just one speed. That's all!!!... one!! Respotting/moving aircraft efficiently has more to do with well trained aircraft directors & aircraft handling crews than the speed of elevators...really.

ps sorry for thinking a J-15 was a J-10..I'm old doncha know..

It is true, however a slow elevator with small capacity will makes the life of an untrained handling crew a nightmare, every mistake cost lot of time...

Seven years after China's first aircraft carrier was handed over to the PLA Navy, a second one has finished its fifth sea trial. But, this one is different in that it was designed and made right here in China.

No one working on the flight deck for any nation should be untrained. If they are untrained, that person is an accident waiting to happen.
