视频丨福建舰入列！回顾国之重器的震撼时刻

Core Viewpoint - The commissioning of the Fujian aircraft carrier, the world's first conventionally powered aircraft carrier utilizing electromagnetic catapult technology, marks a significant technological breakthrough for China's naval capabilities [1][12]. Group 1: Development Milestones - The Fujian aircraft carrier is China's first entirely self-designed and built electromagnetic catapult aircraft carrier, with its construction closely followed since its first sea trial in May last year [3]. - The carrier features a flat-deck design with electromagnetic catapults and arrestor wires, and has a full-load displacement of over 80,000 tons. It was launched on June 17, 2022, with hull number 18 [5]. - The Fujian carrier conducted mooring tests as planned on September 23, 2022, and completed its first sea trial from May 1, 2024, lasting eight days to test various systems [8]. Group 2: Operational Capabilities - The Fujian carrier has successfully demonstrated electromagnetic launch and recovery capabilities, representing another breakthrough in China's aircraft carrier development and significantly advancing naval transformation [12]. - The operational mode of the Fujian carrier will be more flexible compared to conventional carriers, allowing for the launch of various aircraft types, from transport planes to drones, enhancing its combat effectiveness [14][17]. - The ability to launch fighter jets fully loaded with fuel and munitions increases their operational capacity, while also enabling the deployment of fixed-wing airborne early warning aircraft, greatly improving situational awareness and command capabilities [18]. Group 3: Strategic Implications - The entry into the "three-carrier era" with the Fujian, Shandong, and Liaoning carriers allows the People's Navy to operate simultaneously in three major directions, enhancing the mobility and strategic depth of carrier groups [19][21]. - The three carriers can be rotated in operations, ensuring a continuous operational capability and providing a robust naval presence [23].
