the ship seems to have:
8 x 4 YJ-62 ASM
10 x 5 HQ-9 SAM (not sure)
4 x type 730 CIW
2 x Type 75 twelve-barrel 240mm antisubmarine rocket launchers? (not sure)

through this we could tell that varyag posses strong anti-ship and anti-air capability as comparing to other carriers of its class.

Agreed. I do not know who made some of the models or arranged the planes on them...clearly, there was not much thought given in some of the models to reality.

The models were made by students from Harbin Enginerring University. It is said every PLAN ship's design and development has people graduated from this university paticipated.

but during operational states varyag can only have max 10~12 fixed wing planes on deck, there is no way it will reach the amount being placed in the model.

It's a leisure time activity by those students, not a serious design. They built the model to celebrate their university's XXth aneversary, I don't remember how many years. It's not a graduating project or sth.

i think the 4x8 YJ-62 ASM should be replace by 18-barrel Type 726-4 Decoy Launcher to fire off decoys/chaffs from missiles.
