    I am Chinese.
    According to the mainstream view in China, the main purpose of the current aircraft carrier is to move forward to the waters east of Taiwan Island during the Taiwan Unification War to carry out area denial missions against the United States and Japan and target attacks on the east side of the Yushan Mountains.
    But no matter which one, the aircraft carrier will not become the main force. The main force will be thousands of missiles including hypersonic missiles and more cheaper rockets. In addition, a large number of drones ranging from giant to micro will be used in reconnaissance and strike.

      Yup, clearly China will lean towards missile strikes with subs, destroyers, and frigates. However, the aircraft carrier strike groups will be needed for other kinds of missions that require aircraft attacks. Especially after the enemies air defenses are taken out.

    Note that China does not actually need to build nuclear powered aircraft carriers for its growing fleet, at least for defensive purposes. Aircraft carriers have the strategic role of "projecting power", in other words, to support air operations during offensives far from the mainland. There is strictly no such situation around the world where China would need to bring its air force capabilities. To defend its own coast as well as the island of Taiwan, China can rely on various type of missiles that it has already in vast quantities, including hypersonic missiles as well as strategic ICBMs with thermonuclear warheads.
    Aircraft carriers are considered "sitting ducks" in modern warfare, the only kind of ships that China really needs to build in large numbers to achieve dominance in the seas around China would be nuclear powered attack submarines.

    China has the potential to grab a massive win for it's military if it can 1) Pull off the dual carrier construction and 2) Have both be nuclear, this is how America pulled ahead a long time ago, it went for the stars in terms of accomplishing unheard of military developments, don't be content with developing what's been done already or you'll be doomed to always playing catch up with your rivals.
    At this point in time, it would be infinitely better for China to build only nuclear powered carriers than to build 1 or 2 more conventional carriers, contrary to popular belief there is very little chance of a conflict breaking out between America and China so time is on China's side there is no need to rush.

      Undersea is the only safe place from continuous satellite tracking and long range hypersonic missiles. When push comes to shove, major surface ships will not survive 1 night … not even the ones moored in home port. There are ways to shift many missions from surface ships to a combination of subs, smaller surface ships, land based air cover, and helicopters/quad copters. And even make a limited size single runway launch/retrieval ship that can temporarily duck underwater when antiship missiles are detected.

    From looking into Soviet doctrine and their construction program of the Kiev and - never completed and then scrapped - Ulyanovsk class - arguably the reference for the Chinese Type 004 - one may be surprised that their main mission was not Mahanian 'decisive battles' against other surface assets like WW II Carrier Groups, but *Anti-Submarine Warfare* ('Okean 1970').
    One could look whether armament and observable tactical training of the PLAN confirms such a focus or contradicts it.
    It's a matter of interpretation, but the more aviation units, capable of 'ASW' - in contrast to air superiority missons - the 004 carries, the more likely the respective doctrine.

    Agree on Dalian Naval Shipyard being the primary, though I’m going to go out on a limb and predict the simultaneous construction of CVN-20 and 21, with 20 being the lead ship in design and timeframe. Within two years of CVN-20, 21 will commission, unless the PRC need to make drastic changes from lessons learned via CVN-20, which is unlikely, IMO.

      In my view, and I have just intuition to back this up, the Central Military Commission's long-term Project 048 to build up China's carrier force has been affected by the rise in Sino-US tensions. Project 048 has been well entrenched way before 2018, which calls on the PLAN to have firstly 2 medium carriers (Liaoning and Shandong), 2 large CVs, and followed by CVNs. However, these ships were intended to project naval presence and develop blue water status - and are not expected to be effective in a naval conflict with the US. Contrary to what some people may think, higher tension with the US actually reduces the PLAN's desire for more carriers, and they would much prefer these resources to be used in things like submarines and surface combatants - ships that will be more immediately useful and more relevant for a great-power clash than carriers. So, I believe the PLAN has dialed back its carrier ambitions at least a little bit, owing to increased tension with US in the past few years. However, very recently relations with US seem to have thawed a bit, and if that thawing is sustained carriers may regain their appeal to the PLAN.

China now finds that the real power at the sea is CVN, or as it has been a popular acronym for some time CATOBAR nuclear carrier. Fujian has his role in training and could operate as a fully functional attack CV but Liaoning and Shandong look to me as a costly surplus for the PLA Navy. Actually, for me is an enigma why the Chinese invested in such types of ships.

      Rome was not built in a day The Chinese are pragmatic and they achieve their goals step by step in a steady way. When they decided to develop an aircraft carrier, they had no idea how to design, build, operate an aircraft carrier.
      So first they sought to buy a decommissioned aircraft carrier from all over the world, and finally China could only buy a semi-finished Soviet aircraft carrier with a commercial company and complete it.
      Then, by completing the subsequent construction and operation of this carrier, the Chinese gained experience, so they built a similar carrier on their own and made improvements that they thought would be more useful.
      Then, after learning how to design and operate a carrier, they added more new technologies to design and build more advanced carriers.
      The fourth step is to build a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. This step is under way.

    I believe it will be better for 004 to be conventional. Not because of potential conflict with the US, in which carriers will be useless and it's highly unlikely to happen. But rather it's too big a jump, without the real world experience with a CATOBAR carrier to iron out all the bugs. The lessons would be much more expensive and it's radio active. A nucleaer carrier not only takes much more money to run but also bear much bigger consequences if things go wrong, and they will. The next 5 years or so will see pretty tough time in economy all arond the world, one more reason to go conventional. Finally, China has never had any experince in carrier nuclear reactors, either. Only USA has it. But given China is currently experimenting SMR(small modular reactor) and thorium reactors on land, both look like much better alternatives to conventional pressurized water reactor, it makes much more sense to wait for 5 more years. If either SMR or thorium is the future, it will be way better to skip the pressurized water reactor, just like skipping the steam catapult and go directly EM.

    Great video as usual my friend- I am surprised if the carrier gets 4 elevators - adds more mechanical points of failure on an already loaded ship
    I believe 3 elevators is more than sufficient for the needs of the PLAN , unless the amount of carriers will be less than 5 in total.
    I personally disagree with the idea of foregoing CV-19 - it needs to be built to be a rotational partner with the Fujian when either one goes in for maintenance and it will also help build and improve upon the CV-18 design and any potential mistakes that might have occurred during the building of the fujian for example the jet blast deflectors being quite close to the elevator nearest the tower
    I do agree that the 4th generation CV-20 will be nuclear and I also believe that the modular components of the ship are being actively developed and I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s built along side CV-19 by 2030

We are talking about skilled aviators, oilers, machinists, ground crews etc. You just cannot induct green recruits to man those carriers supervised by some 2-3 years carriers experienced officers. You need more experience officers and crews.
    China realise this issue, that's why they build their carrier force gradually, designating type 001 and 002 carriers as "training carriers".

    The construction of a nuclear carrier might not even start this decade. I believe that mainly because of the cost. We see that the Chinese economy is not doing well at all in the last 2 years. They commissioned just 1 destroyer this year. They are working on several frigates and 1-2 Type 039C submarines that are yet to be commissioned. The 003 can't even start sea trials and with that speed the CVN-80 would probably be launched for sea trials by the time Fujian is launched for sea trials. Ofc the CVN-80 would come online somewhere in 2025. But the point is that it is very possible that America could have 3 EMAILS carriers and China only 1. Each of these American carriers is more capable than Type 003 as well.
