When China finally has its own large aircraft, C919 is highly praised at the same time, but also caused many netizens to question, more than sixty percent of the components are built in the United States and other Western countries, in the context of the Sino-US trade war, the United States is pressing the mainland step by step unscrupulously suppressed, how to respond to the challenges of the mainland's aviation independent innovation and lead the future?
In 2024, the mainland's C919 large aircraft has been flown on the Beijing-Shanghai route, and the ticket price of a few hundred yuan can appreciate the style of domestic large aircraft, which makes many Chinese people very proud and proud. However, behind the research and development, there are many hardships and efforts, the mainland has been monopolized by the Western aviation industry for decades, and now it has finally broken through the bottleneck and realized the construction of domestic aircraft.
In the eyes of the United States, China's aviation industry has just started, and once it is suppressed, it will be greatly compressed, and the market space is not large, and it may not be able to compete with Western aviation giants at all.
However, when China has solved many problems one by one, when the aircraft developed by China save 10% of fuel with a light fuselage with comprehensive advantages, and the purchase price of each aircraft is less than 10 million US dollars of similar models, and the airlines of many countries are optimistic about and trust the quality of Chinese-made aircraft, the United States can no longer hold its breath.
China's C919 has received more than 1,300 orders, which is more than the combined orders of the two major aviation giants of the United States and France.
In the face of China's rise as a great power, the United States is extremely unwilling, obstructs in every possible way, and uses all means not only to launch a scientific and technological war and a trade war, but also to try by all means to stumble the mainland, to control the mainland in terms of airworthiness certificates, in a vain attempt to prevent the mainland's large planes from going abroad, and to prevent Chinese-made planes from participating in international aviation competition.
Many netizens have debated whether the C919 is a domestic aircraft? Does the extensive use of Western-produced components have a major impact on the mainland's independent control of aircraft manufacturing? In fact, the aircraft designed by the mainland belongs to independent research and development of technical patents, and the components provided abroad are also customized in accordance with the requirements and parameters of Chinese designers, just like Boeing in the United States, it will also find a French company to manufacture, but the aircraft is still produced by Boeing in the United States after assembly.
Many netizens know that China actually has the wisdom of a big country to participate in international competition, and many countries will definitely not accept China's ability to independently produce such important high-end aviation manufacturing equipment as aircraft, and the mainland's use of Western-built components can also reserve more space for itself, saving time and costs.
At the same time, it also reserves space and possibility for Western companies to cooperate, but even if China has benevolently made a gesture of sincerity, in the eyes of the West led by the United States, as long as China makes scientific and technological progress, it will get out of control and challenge the authority of the United States' scientific and technological leadership, so the United States always tries to obstruct China's development and does not hesitate to use improper means to block it.
However, in the face of COMAC's C919 procurement of important components from the United States, the United States was reluctant to give up in the face of these extra orders, and when it was found that the important parts of the engine had hidden dangers of landing damping, the mainland postponed the test and delivery for 100 days, and at the same time saw that the quality of important parts provided by the West was not as stable and reliable as it claimed.
On the one hand, the mainland is trying to find a way to solve the problem, and on the other hand, it is also stepping up the testing of domestically produced aero engines, and once it uses domestically produced components, it will be able to take all the initiative into its own hands, and there will be no external hidden dangers.
Therefore, the domestic C919 large aircraft, is currently steadily replacing foreign parts in batches, here it needs to be emphasized that the parts imported from abroad, not that the mainland has no way to produce their own, but based on the consideration of reserving space for cooperation and saving time and costs.
However, in the face of Russia's imported aircraft in the West, after the supply of parts was cut off, it had to disassemble the parts on the new aircraft and lost hundreds of millions of yuan.
Continental's domestic aircraft uses a large number of high-tech 3D printing technology, which can print fine parts and parts with special specifications, saving a lot of time such as trial and error and casting models, and also laying a technical and practical foundation for the next more complex R&D and construction, and accumulating a large amount of valuable data.
In fact, in the context of world economic integration, the United States only recognizes that it is not omnipotent in the world, and must learn to respect other countries and accept fair and honest cooperation, so that China can more recognize the United States, and can also promote the future economic cooperation between the two countries, which can be carried out in a good and orderly manner.
