The Chinese People’s Liberation Army Navy ( PLAN ) is still conducting sea trials of its first big locally built aircraft carrier, the 80,000-ton Fujian .

While Fujian 's crew works out the ship's kinks, the crews of the PLAN 's other carriers the ex-Soviet Liaoning and her Chinese -built sister Shandong are training for war.

The US Navy's own carriers can sustain more sorties over a longer period of time and there are a lot more American carriers.
