Let me guess....maybe before Oct ?
CV-18 Fujian/003 CATOBAR carrier thread
- Thread starter Jeff Head
- Start date
You mean launch in 2022? Well, it'll be a long time~ I don't like waiting T T
Me neither, but anyway in comparison to 002 they are now to a state of construction comparable to August (?) 2016 or about 8-9 months before launch, what would correspond to March/April 2022.
I wouldn't rule out possible launch sometimes in December, as the Chinese have a tendency of setting hard deadlines right before the New Year.
Thx, what a concrete image~
Has it taken as long as 002 to get to this stage?
Would Covid-19 have had any impact on the progress?
And the puzzle is nearing completion ... if I'm not mistaken, then the last two front segments for the angled deck are already prepared and so in a certain way after these two parts, the missing middle panels of the flight deck and the island, the ship is structurally finished.
It looks like they are putting on paint in the left corner of the ship. Remember that for the first type 075, all of a sudden it was discovered that they managed to put on a few coats of paint?
