The Chinese mainland's Navy just hit a new high score: carrier-based fighters J-15T, J-35 and the KJ-600 early-warning plane completed their inaugural electromagnetic catapult takeoffs and arrested landings on the Fujian! 🚢✨
Launched Monday, this training confirms that the Fujian — the Chinese mainland's first domestically built catapult-equipped aircraft carrier — now has full electromagnetic launch and recovery capabilities. It's like giving the fleet a serious upgrade in speed and power.
J-15T and J-35 jets soared off the deck with a burst of electromagnetic force, while the KJ-600 early-warning plane proved it can join the carrier's wake. Think of it as unlocking the next level in naval aviation tech! 🎮🛩️
This breakthrough marks another milestone in the evolution of aircraft carriers on the Chinese mainland. With Fujian flexing its new launch system, the Navy is set to expand its blue-water operations and explore fresh horizons.
Stay tuned for more epic naval updates! 🌊🔭
