Translation
13 years ago today — May 10, 2013 — the People's Navy formally established its first carrier-based aviation unit. From that moment, a new type of main combat force was added to the Navy's order of battle. Thirteen years of tempering the sword across sea and sky — breakthrough after breakthrough — have laid the magnificent track of today's great-power navy. Salute! Happy 13th birthday to the Navy's carrier-based aviation units! (Materials provided by: Wang Meng, Leng Xuesong)
