This probably belongs in the ballistic missile thread because the paper is a study on the destructive effect of "strategic weapons" (战略武器) on large and complex naval hulls (i.e. carriers).

CASI Report: Reconstruction of PLA Navy Special Aviation Airfields
The report mentions five airfields that have undergone reconstruction.
Southern Command
Waisha Airfield (Shantou, Guangdong Province)
Construction of taxiways is ongoing. Perhaps the construction of caponiers to house special aircraft, including Kunjing-200 anti-submarine aircraft and Kunjing-500 AWACS aircraft. The airfield is used by the PLA to carry out missions in the Taiwan Strait.
Eastern Command
From 2020 to 2022 Large-scale reconstruction was carried out, infrastructure was built, seven new caponiers were erected to house Kunjing-200, Kunjing-500 AWACS aircraft, etc.
From 2021 to 2022 The runway and taxiways were rebuilt, the apron was expanded and seven new caponiers were erected to house the Kunjing-200 and Kuntjing-500 AWACS aircraft.
Northern Command
+ 11 new caponiers in addition to the six existing ones to shelter the AWACS Kunqian-200, Kunjing-500 and special aircraft based on the Yun-8.
Since 2022, the construction of 16 caponiers for the Kunqian-200 and special aircraft based on the Yun-8/-9 and reconnaissance aircraft is underway.
Courier is the Chinese nickname for DF missile.

Why don't you at least give us a summary of this 30-page report? What are the relevant points and passages? What are your thoughts on them?
Don't just lackadaisically copy and paste the report's title and think that suffices as a summary.
This forum isn't the place for low-effort information saturation.

I read it. Mostly stuff we already know. A bit out of date e.g. re diesel engines for Thai boat and Hangor class. A few factual errors, such as saying the first sub out of the new Huludao halls was in January 2023 when in fact it was May 22.

The Only thing interesting is this: Sensitive ASW and undersea warfare-related technologies including hydroacoustic sensors, underwater communication, and underwater robotics are already being jointly researched by Russian and Chinese institutes, including in the context of the “Association of Sino-Russian Technical Universities” (中俄工科大学联盟, abbreviated ASRTU) that was formed in March 2011 and is headquartered in China’s submarine hub Qingdao.
