Abstract: In the context of great power competition and drastic changes of international strategic environment, the discussion of the future development of carrier-based aircraft is brought to the focus of attention by changes of combat style, potential use demands and boosts of advanced technology. On the basis of analysis of the main driving factors of fixed-wing carrier-based aircraft development, the evolution paths of key technologies, such as taking-off, landing, integrated support and environmental adaptation, are depicted in this paper. Based on the research and judgment of future development of intelligent and UAV technology, the manned/unmanned cooperative operation, multi-domain cooperative operation and systematic development of carrier-based aeronautics are discussed. The main capabilities and technical characteristics of the next generation fixed-wing carrier-based aircraft are proposed.

Key words: carrier-based aircraft, aircraft carrier, ejection take-off, arrested landing, integrated support, environmental adaptation, cooperative operation
