Does it mean it's a joint development?

No
Nothing to do with india!

The Henan company's name in the OP's article was " Henan Oberoi Aircraft Company"
They terribly messed up the name of the Henan company, so unprofessional!
including this
WantChinaTimes.com
and this
Airliners.net and perhaps many more

The name of the company is called something like 河南欧贝飞机公司 " O-Bay Aircraft "

i guess if airbus is producing in china russia has to produce in china as well, just shows you how much europe likes russia that they rather produce in america and china than in russia.

I still think the accident in indonesia was sabotaged by the west so this plane became a failure, if its really the case i hope china enjoys western technology to steal from

Maybe the plane is too complicated with all these components from different developers, i hope sukhoi doesnt rely on faulty foreign technology for their next superjet.
