China’s Aircraft Engine, Where to Go?

Ni Jingang & Wang Zhiqiang / President of Sino-engine Technologies & General Manager of Sino-engine Technologies

This study describes briefly the strategic status and development feature of aircraft engines, as well as the successful aircraft engine industry in Western countries (US, UK, France) being an integrated, market-bonded whole led by major manufacturers or OEMs, and supported by government, clients and suppliers, whose roles and responsibilities are clearly defined. It demonstrates that, the fundamental solution to revitalizing China's aircraft engine industry lies in a market-oriented national mechanism. To this end, following suggestions are proposed: 1) marketing reform of major aircraft engine manufacturers or OEMs, 2) building an inclusive supplier system, 3) establishing national aircraft engine research institute, and 4) attracting experts from abroad and helping tap their full potential.
