China announced Sunday that it had landed a fighter jet on the deck of an aircraft carrier for the first time, but it may be years before the ship is fully operational.
China's "first generation multi-purpose carrier-borne fighter jet," known as the J-15, successfully completed its first landing on the Liaoning, an aircraft carrier China built using an abandoned Soviet hull, according to China's official news agency Xinhua.
The J-15's capabilities are comparable to the Russian Su-33 jet and the U.S. F-18, Xinhua reported. The Chinese-designed jet can "carry multi-type anti-ship, air-to-air and air-to-ground missiles, as well as precision-guided bombs, the report said.
The U.S. military, in its latest annual assessment of China's military capability, predicted "it will still take several additional years for China to achieve a minimal level of combat capability for its aircraft carriers."

China has no where near the capability of the US military.
US missiles will sink the aircraft carrier while it is still docked....

It's serious Vj2, NSNBC reports that China already has two pilots trained to land on carriers and that another will be in training no later than 2014.

I dunno man it's kind of odd for the USA with 11 aircraft carriers at about 120 pilots per carrier to feel threatened by 3 pilots. Imagine how other nations must feel? :roll:
Brandon try and have some class. It'll be hard but try :shock:

Delusional or paranoid; make up your mind. Some things never change.

China can't even reach the USA without us knowing their very move... They have 2 guys who can land a plane on a ship.. That's one hell of a learning curve.. They don't want to go to war with the USA

I think the US will construct 3 brand spanking new carriers before the Chinese get another one off.

Justme-Maybe we should invade China. Those three pilots are a hell of a threat to us. First thing you know, they'll have four and then five. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
