Reference news August 6, British media said China's Internet forums on a photo display, located in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China overland carrier model is rebuilt.

United Kingdom, Jane's defence weekly, August 4, that may reflect the current Dalian shipyard built China's first Chinese indigenously-001A-002 is the next changes between the independent construction of aircraft carrier.

The most significant change is that ski-jump takeoff parts have been removed from the aircraft carrier model, which intensified about China's guess of the third aircraft carrier will be equipped with a catapult.

China's third ship is expected to be in the vicinity of Shanghai Jiangnan-Changxing Island shipyard. So far, Chinese officials have not yet confirmed that this project, there was no visible evidence to support its construction process. However, there are still quite a lot of conjecture about the initial modules are under construction.

On f-15 aircraft carrier to China in Heath village air base that provides support for satellite imagery shows that were assessed as a catapult work under construction beginning in 2015. Further shows that the future Chinese aircraft carrier will be equipped with catapult takeoff and blocked landing system (CATOBAR).

Heath village installed two systems respectively for the steam catapults and an electromagnetic catapult. Install both systems showed that the system for use on an aircraft carrier in the future which may not yet make the final decision.

Dalian 001A carrier according to the latest unofficial image of a ski-jump deck for short takeoffs; this is China's first aircraft carrier ship similar in Liaoning province.

On the flight deck of this structure has been largely completed, the final ski-jump module is prepared, only to be installed.

Prior to the aircraft carriers launching will also install some modules on ship island. According to the current schedule, the carrier may be launched on the end of 2016, but more likely to be the beginning of 2017.

On being released before the front landing gear modification of f-15 aircraft carrier shows the plane is getting ready for catapult-assisted take off.

Configure CATOBAR carrier airborne early warning aircraft will also "open the door". Nearly new model shows, design work was already in progress.

Other obvious changes on the land carrier models also included a new bridge or the operations control center.

In General, the ship the size of the island is expected to be narrow, but it is not clear whether this will be duly reflected in the model, as this would involve substantial modification of.

However, if this model does not accurately reflect the structure of the ship, then this will make the outside features of the model into question.

In 2015, although this model transformation – changing the configuration of phased array radar, second carrier estimated to be equipped with this radar – but it does not seem to come with a set of sensor systems that can be put to use.

This will limit its function as a weapon system integration platform. In addition, if the carriers of this model is not an exact physical representation, in terms of electromagnetic compatibility test function will be very limited.

英媒：中国第三艘航母或将配备弹射器

　　参考消息网8月6日报道，英媒称，中国网络论坛上出现的一张照片显示，位于中国湖北武汉的陆上航母模型正在进行改建。

　　英国《简氏防务周刊》网站8月4日报道，这或许能够反映出目前正在大连造船厂建造的中国第一艘中国国产航母001A型与被称为002型的下一艘自主建造的航母之间的变化。

　　最显著的变化是，滑跃式起飞部件已经从航母模型中拆除，这加剧了外界对于中国的第三艘航母将配备弹射器的猜想。

　　中国的第三艘航母预计将在上海附近的江南长兴岛造船厂建造。迄今为止，中国官方尚未证实这一项目，也未出现任何证明其建造过程的可见证据。但是，仍有相当多关于初始模块正在建造之中的猜想。

　　关于为中国的歼-15舰载机提供支持的荒地村空军基地的卫星图像显示，被评估为弹射器的设施的建造工作始于2015年。这进一步表明，未来的中国航母将配置有弹射式起飞与拦阻式降落系统（CATOBAR）。

　　正在荒地村安装的两个系统据信分别为蒸汽弹射器和电磁弹射器。安装这两个系统表明，对于未来航母上采用哪个系统或许尚未作出最终决定。

　　关于大连的001A型航母的最新非官方图像显示有一个用于短距起飞的滑跃式甲板；这与中国第一艘航母辽宁舰上的相类似。

　　在飞行甲板上安装这一结构的工作已经大部完成，最终的滑跃式模块已经组装完毕，只待安装。

　　在航母下水之前，还将安装一些舰岛的组成模块。依据当前的进度，航母可能会在2016年底下水，但2017年初的可能性更大。

　　之前发布的关于一艘正在接受前起落架改造的歼-15舰载机的图像显示，这架飞机正在为弹射式起飞做准备。

　　配置CATOBAR的航母还将为空中预警机“打开大门”。最近生产的模型显示，相关的设计工作已经在进行之中。

　　陆上航母模型上其他显见的变化还包括一个新的舰桥或是新增的作战控制中心。

　　总的来说，舰岛的尺寸预计将被缩小，但尚不清楚这一点是否会如实地反映在这个模型上，因为这将涉及大规模的改建。

　　但是，如果这个模型没有准确地反映这艘航母的结构，那么这将令外界对模型的功能产生疑问。

　　尽管这个模型在2015年接受了改造——更改了相控阵雷达配置，第二艘航母估计会配备这种雷达——但它似乎并没有配备一整套可投入使用的传感器系统。

　　这将限制其作为一个武器系统集成平台的功能。此外，如果这个模型不是准确的航母实物再现，其在电磁兼容性测试方面的功用也将非常有限。
