I believe the article meant the economy of low-altitude aviation, namely helicopters and civilian VTOL crafts.
Thanks
SAC to push aircraft exports this year.
It's not just aircraft exports, but military aircraft exports.
well, but actually which "military aircraft" are build by SAC, which could be exported now!?
But the FC-31 is at least by my understanding far from ready!
this one i don't understand sir.. please elaborate little more
FC-31 is been testing for years. its relatively a mature platform now. this aircraft can be exported with WS-21 engines if SAC get some serious order ... i mean within few years FC-31 can be ready for exports.
I don't think it is any different from signing contracts for F-35 that will be years before delivery
Canada signed a deal for F-35 in 2010 for delivery in 2016 (which gave plenty of time for the government that signed the deal to lose a snap election and have the deal cancelled), then dragged the feet until 2022 at which planes will be delivered in 2024 at best. Even if the deal didn't get cancelled, those early batches had so many problems that probably the deal would've been delayed anyway.
