CV-18 Fujian/003 CATOBAR carrier thread

I think the problem is the high temparature of the steam. The temparature of the steam in piston and therefor the leaked steam blowing the underside of the aircraft is betwen 340 and 257 degrees Celcius, according to this paper.
Many binder material in RAM paint can not withstand that high temparature, such as PAN whose melting point is 300 C.

TBF the ramp launch is shown there conducted from the waist position instead of the bow launch position, so the distance the J-15 would have to travel before clearing the deck would be greater than the J-15T.
Granted a catapult launch would be faster either way, still this is a more apt (as much as ramp launch vs cat launch is apt) illustration -

Can people stop referencing and mocking the comments/opinions of other outlets' communities or gawking at how stupid they are being or how "up to date" they are??

If you want to judge the competency of a content creator or comment section of an article, go somewhere else for that.
If there are comments or opinions from elsewhere that has actual information that holds the basis for constructive discussion related to a thread topic itself, that is fine. But there's no need to reference the "cope" of other places that ends up taking precious posts per page. Current forum structure only allows 10 posts per page for some reason, so be cognizant as to whether what you are writing is actually relevant and constructive to the thread topic please.
