At this years Singapore Air Show, COMACs planes have been grabbed by the first overseas debut and signed aircraft orders at the air show. They signed more than 50 C919 and ARJ21 aircraftOrder.However, the person in charge of the AIA of the American Aerospace Industry Association said that the commercial flying distance of China has become or the serious challenger of Airbus. It still takes several years.
Eric Fanning, chairman and CEO of the United States Aerospace Industry AssociationThere are some novel and shiny things. "" This has not changed my view of monopoly on the worlds double oligarchs, and it will not change for a long time. It is the same thing to display an aircraft at the air show and accept orders., But it is another thing to be manufactured and exported on a large scale. "
At this Singapore Air Show, any commercial aircraft of Boeing has not played. The company decided not to send this year.Any passenger aircraft or cargo aircraft this exhibition because it tries to solve its 737 MAX crisis.
Fan Ning warns not to interpret the development of Corridor too much.He said: "I think we should take the goal of China seriously," "But how difficult they discovered the creation and maintenance of this technology. If the US aircraft products are compared with Chinese aircraft products, I still think that the United States is more favorable.Status. "
Chinese Commercial Flying advertised on a large -scale booth in the center of the Singapore Air Show Hall:" Reliable new choices ".Professionals in the fields of aviation, government, and investment have poured to the booth of COMAC, which shows that the participants have a strong interest in companies with a limited degree of public participation in their local markets so far.
In fact, one of the main uncertainties of the C919 is that key components such as engines and avionics systems rely on Western suppliers, which makes it face geopolitical risks.
These components are also facing the same supply chain problem, which hinders its productivity of Western competitors, and the scale of these competitors of these competitors isEconomics is much stronger, and the relationship with major suppliers is longer.
Chinese COMAC has stated that it will invest tens of billions of yuan in the next three to five years to expand the production capacity of C919.Replacement, but it may take decades.
In fact, COMAC participating in the Singapore Air Show only means that the Long March has just taken the first step, and the way to take the future is still long.And the future will only be more difficult.Because facing the pursuit of foreign peers, every step will be blocked, and it will be far away.
