I don't think the article says anything that's surprising, although I doubt Z-18F will be carrying 4 torpedoes and 4 YJ-91s at the same time.

Pretty sure it meant four torpedos or four YJ-9s.

I would be a bit concerned about the carrier cleared J-15 certified pilots

I mean China did qualify these pilots with J-15 but in 6 months they will be very much out of shape

There's no point in certifying pilots if all they are going to do is get certified

Gents, even the USN is constantly re-qualifying Naval aviators aboard ship. Each one is required to do so many arrested landings in a certain amount of time. Which is about 6 months. I'm honestly not sure.

Well the FAA requires three take-offs and landings too a full stop, in the preceeding 90 days to carry passengers.

My version of the famous Willie Nelson song - ;)

"On the sea again -
Just can't wait to get on the open sea again.
The life I love is making music with my shipmates

And I can't wait to get on the sea again.
On the sea again

Goin' places that I've never been.
Seein' things that I may never see again

And I can't wait to get on the open ocean again.
On the sea again -
Like a band of sailors we go down the open sea
We're the best of friends.
Insisting that the world's ocean keep turning our way

And I can't wait to get on the sea again."

The US Navy when getting underway make these announcements on the 1MC(loudspeaker);

The ship expects to get underway at time zero eight hundred!
Now go to your stations on the Special Sea And Anchor Detail!
All Damage Control Petty Officers lay to DC central to sign Material Condition Yoke!!
The Officer of the deck has shifted his watch from the Quarterdeck to the navigational bridge. Dial 201 or 202.
Then finally
Shift colors!..Shift colors!...The ship is underway!

I wonder what the PLAN says?
