China's aircraft carrier completes 7th sea trial


China’s first aircraft carrier, the "Varyag" has completed its seventh sea trial. This most recent sea trial began on May 23 and lasted for more than 200 hours, and comes only 8 days from the previous one.

Analysts say the recent high frequency of sea trials is a sign that China’s aircraft carrier endeavors have been successful.

A spokesman for the Ministry of Defense said since August last year, China started to send its aircraft carrier on sea trials and is expected to continue a series of scientific research as planned
