Hot spot B: Commissioning of China's first aircraft carrier and successful take-off/landing of carrier-borne J-15 fighters

The handover of the "Liaoning" ship, China's first aircraft carrier, to the PLA Navy was formally held on September 25, 2012. The take-off/landing test on the "Liaoning" aircraft carrier by the carrier-borne fighters was successfully completed two months later. China has made several great progresses in the weapons and equipment field in its national defense and military building in 2012. What is the significance of these progresses?

Jin Yi'nan held that China completed the aircraft carrier renovation, constructed it into China's first aircraft carrier and successfully carried out the take-off/landing test of the carrier-borne fighters against the all-round blockade from the western countries. This is no doubt a major leap forward.

Although China bought an old aircraft carrier, China's technologies achieved major upgrading during the renovation of the aircraft carrier. Although it is a training ship, it boasts important significance. The take-off/landing test of the carrier-borne fighters was successfully conducted two months after the commissioning of the aircraft carrier. It's worth noticing that the pilots of China's carrier-borne fighters are all self-cultivated, which marks a very great leap forward.
