Updated: 2018-09-12

The China International Aviation & Aerospace Exhibition returns to the Zhuhai Airshow Center from Nov 6 to 11 with a record 770 domestic and international exhibitors from 43 countries and regions in attendance.

Having hosted 11 times in Zhuhai, the biennial Airshow China not only showcases China's national defense strength and military-civilian achievements but also promotes global military exchanges and cooperation.

With the addition of Hall 10, the indoor exhibition area this year will increase by 22 percent to exceed 10 hectares (25 acres). Meanwhile, the 40-hectare (99-acre) outdoor display area is to accommodate over 100 aircraft from home and abroad. These include the domestically made ARJ 21 twin-engine regional jet and Boeing 787 wide-body aircraft.

Leading domestic military industrial enterprises will showcase their latest products, technologies, services, and achievements. Chinese air and land forces will bring cutting-edge active-duty weapons and equipment. Maritime defense products will also be spotlighted for a full display of land, sea, air, space, and electric systems.
