    Why would the Chinese want to have a military museum/education center in a less than accurate model of a US carrier? More like military training to go against the US to me.

    Only in China! "Let's build something really really big that nobody else would ever build, because then it will be really really big! And NOBODY else would ever build one like it!" I flew over this on final approach to PVG airport in 2009, thought it was the Liaoning!
