Will it be launched this year or next year?

I think it will be launched 1 or 2 weeks before CNY_2022 which is on 01 Feb 2022

Thanks. Hope this comes to reality. Long holiday, do you mean Chinese New Year?

Chinese people like Germans. Because the Chinese think that Germans work hard and don't tell lies.

Finally - after almost one month - a new image showing the latest progress on the Type 003 aircraft carrier's construction.

As it seems and if not again a faked image, the deck is closed now and they are still working on the port side bow catapult.
