[00:00:00]China is a nation whose very name has become synonymous with the concept of rapid development and this applies not only to its cities, factories, and economy, but also to its navy. It is now difficult to imagine that as recently as the 1970s, the entire Chinese navy was just a bunch of coastal vessels and a dream of a big blue sea. And they walked confidently towards their dream, starting by buying everything that could be bought. First, it was the old Australian aircraft carrier Melbourne.

[00:00:30]Then the Soviet Minsk and Kiev and finally Varyag, which they decided not to learn from, but to remake for themselves, creating Liaoning. Having mastered the science, the Chinese decided to repeat the Soviet experience and created their own ship from scratch, Shandong. And in our time, they took the next step, Fujian, a large aircraft carrier with a flat deck like those of serious boys. And now they want to make a new ship, even bigger and more powerful and already nuclear. The giant Ford will finally have a counterpart. I just hope that the remake of the Battle of Midway doesn't happen in the Pacific Ocean. Look for Chinese aircraft carriers on the horizon.
