The seventh voyage of the Fujian.
Exciting times. I wonder how soon they will release the footage of the launches.
The J-35 is on track to be the first 5th generation fighter to be launched from an electromagnetic catapult. How ironic.
I know what you meant to write was "launched from an electromagnetic catapult from a carrier at sea" or something along those lines (as the F-35C of course has been launched many times from the US land based EMALS facility).
In any case even though there are high expectations for this excursion, it's probably better to not speak of it as if it's a done deal that it will happen.
For all we know they may only recover and launch J-15T, or maybe not even launch any aircraft to begin with.
