BEIJING, Sept. 22 (Xinhua) -- The first China-made landing gear for the C919 large passenger aircraft has been delivered to the developer, according to the state-owned Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC).

The domestically-made nose landing gear and main landing gear have undergone various tests before being delivered on Wednesday by a China-Germany joint venture to the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China (COMAC), the developer of C919, said AVIC.

They were made by Liebherr LAMC Aviation (Changsha) Co., Ltd. in Changsha, central China's Hunan Province, which focuses on developing landing gear systems for the country's aircraft projects.

Liebherr LAMC Aviation (Changsha) Co., Ltd. is a 50-50 joint venture of the AVIC Landing Gear Advanced Manufacturing Corp. and Liebherr Aerospace.

To date, the company has created the assembly and test lines for the C919 landing gear, a major step forward for the joint venture to become the first-tier supplier of domestic large passenger aircraft.

Before this, the company also delivered the landing gear for the ARJ21 new regional jetliners.

Both the C919 and ARJ21 aircraft are developed by the state-owned COMAC.

The parent companies have decided that Liebherr LAMC Aviation (Changsha) Co., Ltd. would bid for the Sino-Russian joint C929 wide-body large passenger aircraft project.

The one big problem I see here is the lack of composites and so the plane will not be as fuel efficient as those from Airbus or Boeing.
Cannot see much sales outside China to be honest.

for every complex problem, there is always an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong.

Also China is reliant on Western engines.
They will never sell you their best engines if your planes
can seriously threaten their own manufacturers.
China needs to pump in many hundreds of billions of dollars and many more decades before it can compete with Airbus and Boeing.
China will get there in the end I am sure though.

C919 is used for civil use, so there are no such restrictions on it.

You think EU and US will give export licences for engines if COMAC was as good as Airbus or Boeing?
That would be economic suicide for them.
Anyway by the time China catches up(circa 2040) with the West, it's engine tech will have caught up anyway.
