What AVIC Xi'an Aircraft Industry does

AVIC's large-aircraft manufacturer, building Chinese military transport and bomber airframes.

Sells aircraft to the Chinese military under state-approved contracts rather than on an open market, so output and pricing follow defence procurement plans. It is the large-aircraft maker within the state-owned AVIC group, which controls it. Civil structural work for foreign aircraft builders is a smaller sideline.

In one line: China's Boeing Defense/Lockheed for large military aircraft.
