Is the Dongjian class ship in case an accident happens, an airplane or a landing craft goes down?

Spotting for uninvited submarines in the area trying to acquire acoustic signature of the new ship.

Listening for unwanted underwater intruders are also a job for escorting or following 056A and 054A sometimes seen near new ships in trials or exercises.

Nomenclature doesn't matter.
Pennant is CV 17.

It does matter, because 001A doesn't exist.

Whoever made that collage still used what people thought it was called.

It's still a good collage. I want to see that compared to 003.

It's still a good collage.

It shows 002 with the first upper modul after 239 days.
Swimming out after 789 days.
So the collage tells us, building process is 30% ready and 70% remaining when the first upper modul is brougt into position. That is the status 003 has at the moment.

Maybe... It's a good gauge. But I think 003 is much more complex on the upper modules vs 002 due to the EMALs so will take more time. Anyway this is off topic
