防衛省統合幕僚監部は10日、太平洋での航行が初めて確認された中国海軍の空母「山東」で、艦載の戦闘機やヘリコプターが7~9日に計約120回発着艦したと発表した。自衛隊が撮影したJ15戦闘機がスキージャンプ式の艦首から飛び立つ様子や2機で飛行する写真も公開した。

The Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Ministry of National Defense of Japan announced on the 10th that about 120 carrier-based fighter jets and helicopters took off and landed from the Chinese Navy's "Shandong" aircraft carrier within three days, including 80 carrier-based aircraft and 40 helicopters.

so Taiwanese detection rate of carrier based aircraft is 1/30 - 4 claimed detections, 120 sorties.

Based on my reading:

JMSDF announces on 4/7-9 of 5 Reiwa (2023), Chinese navy Shandong carrier (naval number 17) and multiple naval vessels, were found cruising at the following places in the Pacific, with the following confirmed vessels.

4/7, 8 PM: Miyako-jima, south, 390 km. Shandong carrier (17), Luyang 3 052D (163), Jiangwei 2 054A (573), AOR (905)

4/8, 8 PM: Miyako-jima, south, 430 km. Shandong carrier (17), Luyang 3 052D (163), Jiangwei 2 054A (536, 573), AOR (905)

4/9, 8 PM: Miyako-jima, south, 230 km. Shandong carrier (17), Luyang 3 052D (163), Jiangwei 2 054A (536, 573), AOR (905)

Within this time, Chinese navy's Shandong carrier's air wing had 80 sorties with carrier based planes and 40 sorties with ???, totaling 120 sorties confirmed.

MSDF squadron 13 at Sasebo and squadron 4 at Kure gathered information, warned and tracked the ships. ASDF conducted emergency intercepts of the air wing.

That’s as far as you can push a ski jump type aircraft carrier.
