CR929 jet gets 2-nation boost for its fuselage
Print Edition
A China-Russia wide-body aircraft development project has launched the joint concept definition phase for the body and tail of the plane.
鈥淎 team of Chinese and Russian engineers is currently drafting the general technical proposal for the CR929, a 280-seat jet with a range of 12,000 kilometers,鈥 said Guo Bozhi, general manager of China-Russia Commercial Aircraft International Co.
鈥淭he CR929 will make extensive use of composites in its structure,鈥 said Guo, who is also the deputy general manager of the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China (COMAC).
Shanghai-based CRAIC is a joint venture of COMAC and its Russian partner United Aircraft Corp.
It was set up last May to jointly develop the CR929.
COMAC undertakes the tasks of designing and developing the fuselage and empennage, or the tail, according to the work distributions of the Chinese and Russian sides.
Both sides are now pushing their works on the CR929鈥檚 structure.
Guo said that the wide-body project adopted the model of 鈥渕ain manufacturer-suppliers,鈥 and the stance of 鈥渟haring risk and benefits鈥 to boost domestic and international cooperation.
On March 22, CRAIC joined COMAC and United Aircraft to start the joint concept definition of the engine and airborne systems for the CR929, according to COMAC. They are also carrying out work on selecting suppliers of the airborne systems.
