Ok we have more to look forward to now
Especially the air wing, sea trials have started should start seeing production of 24 x J15B
Also for rotary I expect the following
2 x Z18 for transport
2 x Z18J for AEW
2 x Z18F for ASW
2 x Z18 for SAR
4 x Z9D for SAR
That’s 12 x helicopters pretty much what we have for CV-16

China's first domestically built aircraft carrier has concluded its maiden sea trial on Friday, and is returning to Dalian Shipyard in northeast China's Liaoning Province. The five-day sea trial, starting from May 13, tested the carrier’s equipment, and has achieved the desired aim.

Froma Asia Times that in the earlier post diminish China achievement
China’s home-made carrier back to pier after first sea trial
The state broadcaster has offered a first-hand peek into the interior of the new flattop during its maiden voyage

China’s second aircraft carrier, and the first domestically built, returned to its construction yard at Dalian Shipyard in northeastern China’s Liaoning province at noon on Friday, having wrapped up a five-day voyage into the nearby Bohai Sea.

State broadcaster China Central Television reported that much of the equipment aboard the 65,000-ton vessel underwent tests throughout the sea trial, “yielding results as expected,” without elaborating further.
But a one-minute aired by CCTV has offered a peek into the interior of the vessel, which is yet to be named but is referred to as carrier “Type 001A.”
The vessel’s spacious wheelhouse with racks of monitors and computers, as well as what is believed to be a central chamber of its propulsion system, appeared in the clip.

It’s believed that the maiden voyage was primarily meant to test the carrier’s conventional oil-fueled steam turbine power plant and other communication, navigation and steering systems.
The new flattop will cast off for more sea trials in the coming months as the Chinese navy expects to receive it by the end of the year for installation of weapons and air complement.
State media have played down the first sailing of the carrier on May 13, just one year and two weeks after it was launched.
