Zhuhai Airshow: China Invests in Jet Engine Development

Aero Engine Corp of China (AECC) was put on public display for the first time at the Zhuhai Airshow. While nothing substantial was on display (not surprising, considering that AECC was only set up in August), it show China's determination to complete the last piece of puzzle in developing world class combat aircraft.

AECC bring together 96,000 employees in more than twenty jet engine companies, repair firms and academic institutes from all over the country. AECC was funded to the tune of 50 billion yuan ($7.40 billion) in registered capital from the State Council, the Beijing government and state-owned aircraft manufacturers.
