Chen: The next 5-8 years is a decisive period of China’s aviation industry
Posted on November 18th, 2010
Aviation Industry the level of both national and hard power, soft power is also the country
air show features the biggest is that it is information, information exchange and sales platform.
Zhuhai Air Show has been held for the 8th, this event is called netizens “military fan festival”, but also the media attention. However, information exchange and product sales from the perspective of the Zhuhai Air Show Air Show and foreign well-known, there are still some gaps.
aviation industry is the country’s hard power, because the aviation industry to provide advanced equipment for the defense, but also for the country’s economy and provide industrial support.
the same time, the level of the aviation industry in many ways also reflects a country’s soft power. As reflected in our Zhuhai Air Show and the famous gap between the air show, in fact, the level of China’s aviation industry and the world advanced level caused by the lack of soft power.
from a larger scale, who have advanced aviation industry, who in the development of this area have more say and a greater demonstration effect. For example, we are concerned about what the Americans are now in the development of new aircraft, once the Americans developed a new model or a new concept, we will follow the trend of the previous. In fact, this is the aviation industry on behalf of the performance of soft power.
China’s aviation industry has taken the pace of industrial upgrading and restructuring
China’s aviation industry in the past mainly for the national defense technology and equipment to provide basic support, but In the air show, we see the biggest highlight of the domestic C-919 transport aircraft, which is the so-called “large aircraft.” C-919 into the commercial market, this is the upgrading of China’s aviation industry an action. In other words, our aviation industry from the past to meet the basic needs of national defense to become the country’s economic take steps in the direction of the pillar industries.
aviation industry is a high value-added industries. Reform and opening up, China is the “world factory” in recent years, we have a lot of the higher-end can produce civilian products, but known as the “Pearl of the crown” of the aviation sector, we have no ability to fight large scale into the international market.
from the Zhuhai Air Show, we see China’s aviation industry, determination and action, which makes us feel happy.
the next 5-8 years will be a decisive period of China’s aviation industry
view from the international situation, in another 5 years, our neighboring countries Start the United States the most advanced equipment, the 4th generation machine, the Air Force fleet of three large-scale generation of machines will also enter the replacement phase, the United States on behalf of main equipment will be 3 to 4 on behalf of the local machine.
this situation on our aviation industry is a huge challenge. Neighboring countries equipped with 4 generation machine, the U.S. main battle equipment into the 4th generation machine, our aviation industry in this time period can for our troops to provide world-class fighter it?
our “large aircraft” – C-919 will be mass production of another 3-5 years. After a period of mass production, this model can not be recognized by the market, can not get enough of the market order, in fact, the ultimate success of this project is a key sign.
So, the next 5-8 years will be decisive period of China’s aviation industry, and marks a decisive victory is in this period of time, we can not come up with a new generation of fighter the world advanced level Our major domestic civil aircraft can not be into the international market and the real in the international market place.
next few years, our aviation industry is an opportunity and a challenge. Approach to this battle, you need the aviation industry (air people) unremitting efforts, but also the whole society and the strong support of the entire nation. (Chen Hu)
