FujianFor the first time, China showed not "festive" videos, but a detailed video of the electromagnetic catapult on the Fujian aircraft carrier, demonstrating the takeoffs and landings of J-15T and J-35 fighter jets, as well as the KJ-600 AWACS aircraft, which especially upset Western observers, since the operation of the radar patrol vehicle from the ship significantly increases the effectiveness of the wing.
J-15T- it is said in the Western press.
J-35Fujian is China's third aircraft carrier. Its length is 316 m. Three electromagnetic catapults are located on the wide flight deck. Their advantage lies in the precise control of the final speed, whether it is a light TCB or a heavy tanker – the launcher can adapt acceleration profiles to reduce the load on the airframe and the airframe.
The KJ-600 AWACS aircraft is a key asset of the wingThe J-35 is a low–profile twin-engine fighter with a folding wing, which is expected to become the main combat aircraft of the Fujian AUG. The J-15T is an upgraded version of the J-15 carrier-based fighter, which can be launched from a catapult. Both types of aircraft give AUG the ability to launch airstrikes and provide air cover.
