The Fujian ship, tail number "18", is China's third aircraft carrier. Fujian is the first ejection-type aircraft carrier designed and built entirely independently by China, without, allegedly, the use of foreign components and engineering support. It has a straight flight deck, is equipped with electromagnetic ejection and locking devices and has a total displacement of more than 80,000 tons.

The PLA Navy announces the beginning of sea trials of the ship, which was actually built in record time. Despite the fact that the aircraft carrier is still awaiting the elimination of problems that may be identified at the stage of sea trials, China notes that the ship may be transferred to the Navy for operation as early as mid-summer this year.

In the United States, meanwhile, members of Congress have already expressed concern, declaring "the militarization of China threatening the Indo-Pacific region."
