The crew after the reactor gets hit…
Don’t worry we can fix it!
I wonder, will she be steam, or electromatic

If Fujian and Gerald R. Ford catapult gives gives of steem Gaijin dropped the ball. Have to say personally Fujian is a cleaner looking ship less bits and bobs. But it’s nice we got these AI ships.
Hopefully we get aircraft carrier Ulyanovsk as a jacked Sovet Carrier she is a bigger size then the one we have therefore a bit easier to land on.
Oh,.those navalized Berkuts a very cute to see

Ship was laid down 40% complete and then USSR collapsed apparently China did get there hands on the plans but who knows what they did with it. Most likely fed it into the carrier program for some insight.
But for gameplay there are some catapults and you get a bit more of a run up.
Sure, but aren’t all Soviet and Russian naval jets just straight up not reinforced for catapult launch anyway? (Although that one can be wave for gameplay purposes)

Yeah, All the Soviet planes take off using their own engine power and a ramp as opposed to a Catapult or EMALS.

There where aircraft built for carriers we also should take into account how in game if you pick carrier spawn as a Western plane you maybe out of luck.

I mean Gaijin has said before that if a ship was laid down then it’s possible to be added in game.
I don’t see why they couldn’t add this, since all it would really do is allow more people to take off/land on the carrier.

J-15T must be insanely heavy then, being the first to get reinforced like that, looking back on how even Su-33 was a lot heavier than regular flankers without CATOBAR equipment

Afaik not really.
The Chinese use a LOT of Composites compared to the Russians. It keeps their planes much lighter.

Her strength would be in nuke mode bit more defensive capability & closer aligned with the other carriers esspecally with what’s coming.
I should write a suggestion as a aircraft AI spawn option.

Composites can only do so much, additional reinforcements would cancel out a lot of the weight savings anyways

I mean if it’s for balancing it makes sense.
If all the new carriers are gonna be super well protected then all Nations should be able to spawn in peace.

True Chinese Flankers in General are considered better in a lot of categories compared to there Russian sisters. However if Soviet Union never collapsed USSR likely would have gone down a similar path as Russia have been improving the flanker.

It’s two very different schools of thought applied to the same aircraft family. It’s very interesting to see the pros and cons.

The carriers also need to do emergency maneuvers like how they would in real life. Increasing to emergency speed and making tactical turns also other ships should do the same. That plus trying to shoot down the missiles.
However you should be given a warning if your trying to take off that the ship is in a emergency state.

Most certainly.
If you end up making that suggestion, ping me when it’s finished and I’ll check it out, I’m very interested.

Thanks should be easy there are images of her hull in the 90s I will wait until the update stream concerning the new carriers (would suck if they dropped Ulyanovsk in there as well and I started)
