Land based testing.
These contracts specifically say the price includes both ground based testing and supervision for shipbound installation and crew training.
Yes, because different projects are mixed together. CVN related projects are only used for land-based testing.
Which means that we won't be seeing CVN-19 anytime soon... 空欢喜一场 lol

Nope, beacuse there is only 1 arresting web.
How many arresting webs are typically present on carriers?

But if these larger modules and elements are to be delivered by 2024 - which in fact is not much far away - shouldn‘t be see already “something“ or at least we should see something soon!`?
In fact, this specific bidding is not made by the shipyard themselves but the electric motor manufacturer —— Xiangtan Electric.
Don't waste time on these baseless CG and models.
The flight deck of CVN-19 will be very similar to the Ford class.
  • 4 electromagnetic catapults
  • 3 arresting cables
  • Regular trapezoidal elevators
So how many arresting gear in reality? 3 or 4?
3.1 Objective of the work

In order to realize the lifting requirements of the elevator, the structural optimization design and simulation of the platform body are carried out to complete the research work on the weight reduction of the platform.

3.2 Main performance index requirements

Platform body shape size:

The platform shape is trapezoidal, the size is about 21m/26m×15m. The height of platform body (without lifting point) is not more than 2.5m. The height of lifting point position is not more than 3.4m.

Platform type: four crane point type.

Working range requirements:

The platform meets the rated load-bearing transshipment requirement under the environment condition of 6 grade sea state, and the local does not produce plastic deformation; it meets the load-bearing requirement under the environment condition of 9 grade sea state, and the local does not produce plastic deformation. Simulation of extreme stress conditions including anti-explosion and anti-impact.
"Still remember me?" The 21m/26m×15m elevator bidding earlier in May.

Not too bad, at least we can soon see the simulation flight deck of CVN on land.

Hence, to sum things up - From the aforementioned papers, (at the very least) we can know that CVN-19 is likely to have:
- 4x EMALS catapults;
- 4x (probably aircraft) elevators; and
- 3x EM arresting gears

Is this correct/close enough? Or did I miss anything?

Those four devices belong to the arresting system and are not related to the elevator.
There is currently no information on the number of aircraft elevators, but I believe the number is 3.
