In a first, China’s largest air show will feature a dedicated naval equipment exhibition area, showcasing active-duty hardware in service with the country’s navy, as this year marks the event’s 30th anniversary, the organisers said.
The biennial China International Aviation & Aerospace Exhibition, also known as the Zhuhai air show, displays China’s civilian and military aircraft for international buyers, drawing hundreds of thousands of attendees.
A number of China’s aircraft have debuted at the air show, including the J-20 stealth fighter, which made its first public flight during the 2016 edition.
