2026一马当先。"2026 one horse in the front".

Meaning taking lead, charging at the forefront. Horse is the zodiac sign for 2026.

FYI, this image can be dated to December (edit: November, actually), when Fujian was still PCU (presumably) in the SCS. Here the same scene from another angle.

Indeed, we should be careful posting such images without comment or even as recent ones especially when the "18" is clearly not attached yet.

However it would be interesting to know what aircraft are currently on deck (if any).
