(c) The report says, "J-15 fighters are so heavy that they require the
Varyag to have a ski-jump design on its flattop, like the American carrier
that launched light bombers for the first U.S. air raid on Tokyo in 1942."
Doolittle Raid
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doolittle_Raid
I think the CNA report makes a mistake here. Doolitle Raid was launched from
an aircraft carrier USS Hornet (CV-8), which was flat-top.
US has never had a ski-jump, which was a British innovation around 1980 or
1981. See
Ray Sturtivant, British naval aviation: the Fleet Air Arm, 1917-1990. Naval
Insititute Press (1990), at page 203

("However, at about this tie tests were being carried out at the Royal
Aircraft Establishment at Farnborough with a so-called 'ski-jump', an
upswingdeck platform which would enable Sea Harriers to undertake a fairly
normal take off and thus carry a greater load of fuel and armament than if
they were taking off vertically. The system was the brainchild of Lt Cdr D.
R. Taylor, who had developed the theoretical concept during a year's
sabatical at Southhampton Univrsity. The tests proved successful and large
ramps were soon added to the forward decks of both Hermes and Invincible.
The changes were made not a moment too soon, for in 1982 Britain became
involved in another war * * * On 2 April 1982 Argentine forces invaded the
Falkland Islands")
(d) For SA-N-9, see Tor missile system
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tor_missile_system
(tor is Russian for torus; a surface-to-air missile system; commonly known
by its NATO reporting name, SA-15 "Gauntlet"--a navalized variant was
developed under the name 3K95 "Kinzhal", also known as the SA-N-9 "Gauntlet") |
