As of December 10, 2024, there was no official news about the construction of the aircraft carrier in the Dalian. Previously, some foreign media claimed that China was bidding for two aircraft carriers at the same time, but judging from the development progress and law of China's aircraft carriers, it was unlikely that a new generation of nuclear aircraft carriers would be built before the Fujian ship was in service. In addition, there was news that the construction of Dalian shipyard's workshop and the next-powered aircraft carrier might start at the same time, but these news had not been officially confirmed.

Regarding the 004 aircraft carrier, there was a view that it might be the sister ship of the Fujian, a conventional power aircraft carrier with a full displacement of more than 100,000 tons. Its power configuration would be equipped with the same four steam turbine and eight supercharged boiler as the Fujian ship. It would also use a domestic digital all-electric propulsion system to achieve "hybrid power." Moreover, the new ship-based phased array radar successfully developed by China's 14 Institute of Electronic Technology might be tailor-made for the 004 aircraft carrier. If the aircraft carrier was equipped with China's self-developed electromagnetic launch system, it could carry at least 80 various types of carrier-based aircraft. As for the 005 aircraft carrier, as the Linglong No. 1 nuclear reactor project entered the peak installation stage, it might be applied to the 005 aircraft carrier by Jiangnan Shipyard after its future miniaturized. It was expected to become China's first next-powered aircraft carrier. According to foreign media speculation, the small nuclear reactor would largely use high-temperature gas cooling technology or needle-based molten salt technology. With the support of powerful propulsion, the aircraft carrier 005 would have long-distance combat capabilities. Its standard displacement may exceed 100,000 tons. The aircraft carrier deck may be equipped with four sets of electromagnetic catapults. When fully loaded, it can carry at least 90 different types of carrier-based fighters. It may also be equipped with J-15T heavy fighters, J- 35 stealth carrier aircraft, and Air Police- 600 ship-borne early warning aircraft. It was expected that the aircraft carrier would be equipped with active phased array radar, electronic warfare systems, laser weapons, electromagnetic railguns, and other weapon systems. Its island design would be more compact, and its cruising speed at sea might reach about 35 knots. The novel " Hundred Years of Spaceship " is equally exciting.

Currently, India had two aircraft carriers, the Vikramatia that was purchased from Russia (1 US Dollar, 3 billion US Dollar modification fee) and the Vicklant that India built itself. The Vikrant would kowtow every step of the way during the test flight, and its carrier staff would paint the deck very brightly. The Indian Defense Minister said that India would soon start building a third aircraft carrier and would not be satisfied with three. The target was five to six. However, there were many problems in the manufacture of weapons and equipment in India, such as the failure or poor performance in the manufacture of bullets, fighter jets, missiles, helicopters, parachutes, etc. Its domestic aircraft carrier was also integrated with a multi-national system and had not yet formed combat effectiveness. Therefore, the Indian Navy was more worried about India's construction of a third aircraft carrier. The novel "Hundred Years of Spaceship" is equally exciting.

China's fourth aircraft carrier was in the construction stage, and the specific details were not fully disclosed to the outside world due to confidentiality. On March 5, 2024, Yuan Huazhi, the political commissar of the Navy, said that there was "no bottleneck" in the field of aircraft carrier construction technology. The question of whether the fourth aircraft carrier would use nuclear power would be revealed soon. It was speculated that the next aircraft carrier might be the sister ship of the Fujian ship. It was likely to be a conventional power aircraft carrier, but it would be greatly improved on the technical basis of the Fujian ship, and its combat effectiveness might be higher than the Fujian ship. In terms of naming, the provincial naming tradition might be continued, with the "Taiwan ship" being more popular. In addition, the US satellite had captured the construction of China's fourth aircraft carrier. There were also rumors that the aircraft carrier might have stealth capabilities. There were also opinions that it might be a drone carrier or a multi-functional platform, but these were not officially confirmed. The novel " Hundred Years of Spaceship " is equally exciting.

The tutorial for building a mothership (which could be compared to an aircraft carrier) in the mobile game Ark: Survival Evolution was as follows: 1. [Location: Find a suitable location to build the mothership. This location needs to have enough space to accommodate the mothership, and safety needs to be considered to avoid being attacked by enemy players.] 2. [Collect materials: Building a mothership requires a large amount of materials, such as stones, metal, glass, etc., which can be obtained through gathering, hunting, trading, etc.] 3. [Design and Construction: Construction can begin after sufficient materials are available.] The design had to consider functionality, aesthetics, structural stability, and defensive capabilities. In addition, the construction process required patience and time, because collecting materials and building were time-consuming. During construction, the blueprint function could be used to make it easier to design and build the mothership. He could also invite his friends to build it together, which could speed up the process and increase the fun of the game. The novel "Hundred Years of Spaceship" is equally exciting.

Some US media said that through satellite high-definition photos, they found that a shipyard in Guangdong, China, had a ship under construction that was considered to be the fifth aircraft carrier. However, our side clearly pointed out in the ship bidding notice that this was a "floating test platform" under construction. It was not designed for aircraft carriers, but could be used for a variety of marine missions. It currently had potential military value. The novel " Hundred Years of Spaceship " is equally exciting.

India's aircraft carrier development process had many unique features. After the Republic of India was established on January 26, 1950, it established a naval fleet. Although its national strength was limited, it was interested in the ability of aircraft carriers in the ocean and naval battles and was committed to realizing the "aircraft carrier dream." India currently has two aircraft carriers, one of which is the Vikramatia purchased from Russia. The purchase price is $1, but the modification cost is $3 billion. On April 26, 2019, the Vikramatia caught fire, killing a naval officer. The other was the Indian ship, the Vikrant. The reason why the aircraft carrier Vickland would kowtow step by step during the trial was that the lack of a bulbous bow could not counteract the vortex, and the hull would rise and fall with the waves. Moreover, the staff of the aircraft carrier painted the deck as bright as a mirror, which was not conducive to the stable docking of the aircraft. The Indian-made aircraft carrier was 260 meters long and 60 meters wide. It was equipped with four general LM2500 gas turbine engines with a total power of 80 megavolts. It was propelled by two axes. Its speed was expected to reach 28 knots. Its designed endurance was 7500 nautical miles and its self-sustaining power was 45 days. It was planned to carry a total of 30 carrier-based aircraft, including MiG-29K, Ka- 31 helicopters and Indian-made LCAs. It would take off and block the landing. The flight deck was equipped with two take-off and taxiing routes and three sets of landing arresting devices. India faced many problems during the construction of the aircraft carrier. For example, the first prototype of the carrier-based "Glory" fighter aircraft failed to obtain flight approval due to structural problems, resulting in delays in the service period of the aircraft carrier. India had many shortcomings in the manufacturing of weapons and equipment, and these shortcomings were also reflected in the equipment related to aircraft carriers. Although its domestic aircraft carriers were in service, they had not yet formed combat effectiveness. India relied on imported many key equipment in the construction of aircraft carriers, such as blueprints from France and Italy, gas turbine from the United States, electronic systems from France, special steel from Russia, ship-borne air defense missiles and radars from Israel, and naval guns from Russia. The large L-band air warning radar came from Italy. Now, India announced that it would build a third aircraft carrier. However, given India's past performance in weapons and equipment manufacturing, such as the inability to produce ammunition, poor quality, and misfiring in the production of the Insus rifle, the instability of the Arjun tank caused by the manufacturing of the Arjun tank, the high failure rate, and the difficulty of maintenance, as well as the unpredictable impact point of the Agni missile, the Indian Navy may lack confidence in building a third aircraft carrier.

There were many aircraft carrier-related medals. For example,"The Complete Set of China's Aircraft Carrier Commemorative Medallions" was released in 2011. It was produced by the Chinese People's Revolutionary Military Museum. It was made of 2kg of 999 pure gold and silver. It used more than 100 processes such as mirror embossed, floral inlaying, and exquisite polishing. It included a total of 12 warships of New China, including aircraft carriers. It could be called a museum of naval vessels of New China. There was also a custom-made medal to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the first flight of the "Falcon Eagle". The "Falcon Eagle" fighter was the "official" fighter jet of China's first catapult aircraft carrier, the J- 35 stealth carrier fighter. In addition, the national defense lottery set up awards, including the fourth, fifth, and sixth prizes for different materials (gold-plated, silver-plated, copper-plated) national defense military (lottery) contribution medals.

The development of the Soviet aircraft carrier witnessed the efforts and changes of the Soviet Union in the construction of naval forces. During the Cold War, the Soviet Union vigorously developed its navy to compete with the United States for maritime hegemony. The construction of aircraft carriers became an important part of its naval strategy. In its heyday, it had nine aircraft carriers. However, due to the excessive emphasis on military industry, the Soviet Union's economic structure was unbalanced and eventually disintegrated, which had a huge impact on the fate of its aircraft carriers. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the legacy of the aircraft carrier was divided by the successor states, and the economic situation of each successor state became a key factor in determining the fate of the aircraft carrier. Russia inherited the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier. Although it was in poor condition and needed frequent maintenance, it was of great significance to the Russian Navy. Russia hoped to return it to its peak through modernisation to maintain its position in the global naval force. Ukraine took over the Varyag and Ulyanovsk. The Varyag was not completed when the Soviet Union collapsed. It was sold to China because of the lack of funds and technology in Ukraine. After modification, China named it the Liao ship and equipped it with the navy. The Ulyanovsk was the first next-powered aircraft carrier that the Soviet Union intended to build. It was eventually dismantled due to the interruption of the construction plan of the Soviet Union. Novorossiysk was purchased by South Korea and dismantled into scrap metal in 1997. After the Baku was sold to India, it was renamed the Vikramatia. India upgraded it to become the main aircraft carrier of the Indian Navy. The Minsk and the Kyiv were transformed into theme parks in China's Tianjin and Tianjin, respectively, transforming from war tools into cultural tourism carriers. In the early years of the Soviet Union, other aircraft carriers were explored. For example, in the 1960s, the Soviets began to design and develop the Moscow helicopter carrier, which was the first attempt in the field of aircraft carriers. It had a full displacement of more than 20,000 tons. In the 1970s, they developed the Kiev-class aircraft carrier, a total of four, belonging to the 40,000-ton class aircraft carrier. In the 1980s, they began to develop the Kuznetsov-class aircraft carrier, a total of two, a 60,000-ton aircraft carrier. The novel " Hundred Years of Spaceship " is equally exciting.
