The sole operational aircraft carrier of the People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN), the 60,000-ton Liaoning, a retrofitted Soviet-era Admiral Kuznetsov-class multirole aircraft carrier, arrived in the former British colony of Hong Kong on July 7. The Liaoning’s visit was part of celebrations held to mark the 20th anniversary of the return of the city to the People’s Republic of China.
