China's third aircraft carrier, Fujian, started its first sea trip on Wednesday.
中国第三艘航空母舰“福建舰”于周三开始了首次海试航行。
This carrier has electromagnetic catapults and has a displacement of over 80,000 tons.
这艘航母配备了电磁弹射系统，排水量超过8万吨。
The Fujian left the Jiangnan Shipyard in Shanghai on Wednesday morning.
福建舰于周三上午从上海江南造船厂出发。
Its first voyage was made sure officially when China's Maritime Safety Administration gave notices of navigation limits and announced military activities.
在中国海事局发布航行限制通告并宣布相关军事活动后，其首次航行得到了官方确认。
Experts say that in this first sea trip, the main thing is to test if subsystems like propulsion and power are reliable and stable.
专家表示，在这次首次海试中，主要任务是测试推进系统和动力系统等子系统是否可靠、稳定。
In the next months, more difficult tests will be done on things like electromagnetic compatibility, weapons systems, and taking off and landing of aircraft.
在接下来的几个月中，还将进行更复杂的测试，例如电磁兼容性、武器系统以及舰载机的起降。
The Fujian was launched in 2022 and its building went well.
福建舰于2022年下水，其建造过程进展顺利。
Compared with the second carrier, Shandong, it took less than two years from its launch to this first sea trip.
与第二艘航母“山东舰”相比，福建舰从下水到首次海试所用时间不到两年。
This might be because of the usage of many new and advanced technologies like the electromagnetic catapults.
这可能是由于采用了包括电磁弹射系统在内的多项新型先进技术。
The Fujian is larger and has more displacement.
福建舰体型更大，排水量也更高。
So it can carry more aircraft.
因此它能够搭载更多的飞机。
The electromagnetic catapults make it easier to launch aircraft.
电磁弹射系统使舰载机起飞更加容易。
It can launch heavier, different, full-loaded, and faster aircraft.
它可以弹射更重、更多类型、满载且速度更快的飞机。
It is thought that the Fujian will hold not only better versions of the J-15 fighter jet but also new types of aircraft like the next-generation stealth fighter jet J-35, the fixed-wing early warning aircraft KJ-600, and the JL-10 advanced trainer jet.
人们认为，福建舰不仅将搭载性能更先进的歼-15战斗机，还将搭载新型飞机，如下一代隐身战斗机歼-35、固定翼预警机空警-600以及JL-10高级教练机。
