CV-18 Fujian/003 CATOBAR carrier thread

Holy, the entire 9th destroyer flotilla is out

Some are the former in service ships, I got the news that the video on October 7 showed one of the two 055 ships heading south, while other ships that were not in service were assembled later.

Isn't Shandong there too? If they assemble all these cruisers, destroyers, frigates, subs and add Shandong too, that would be a proper welcome for Fujian formally joining the fleet.

Shandong left port very briefly, of which I would guess is related to the commissioning.

Normally large numbers of naval units leave port in response to bad weather warnings. My understanding is another tropical depression moved into the SCS following typhoon Fengshen earlier.
