It's no coincidence that 052B and 003 are launched relatively close to ea other. When 003 joins the fleet, there would've been a few 052Bs at sea ready to form a fomidable CSG.
Together with the 055s and 054DL, the future Fujian CSG would indeed be a very powerful force. Even more so when the J35 becomes operational.

Did you mean 054B and 052DL instead of 052B and 054DL?

Ma Weiming's latest paper stated that CV-18 uses EM arrestor, no water twister involved as I have posted here #9,203
This is the official confirmation.

In 1), it says CV Fujian is equiped with advanced EM launcher and arrestor.
In 2), it says EM arrestor consists absorption and transmission (cabling), arresting motor, emergy conversion (to electricity) and control system ...... compared with "water twister arresting technology" ......
