Hong Kong, Feb. 16 (CNA)
According to a report published Saturday on China's Sina website, the
Beijing-based China National Aero-Technology Import and Export Corp., an
exporter of aviation products, is expanding its maintenance market
overseas.
Zeng Wen, vice president of the aviation company, noted
in the report that since its founding in 1979, the company has exported
nearly 1,700 military planes, 719 of which are currently in service in
31 countries in Asia, Africa and the Americas.
Zeng said aircraft
maintenance has become a major source of profit for the aviation
manufacturing industry, adding that the maintenance service for a
military plane costs as much as 10-30 percent of the price of a new
plane.
The company has built 27 maintenance sites in different
countries to provide services and reduce maintenance cost for its
clients, he said.
He said that current outgoing shipments by the
company are made up of manned aircraft and drones, while in the past,
the majority of the military planes exported by the company were manned
aircraft.
