China has adopted the strategy of civil-military integration in order to grow and strengthen their helicopter industry. Avicopter, the state-owned company, stated that China has an “independent development capacity in key technologies.”
They are able to produce heavy lifting, high-speed attack and stealth helicopters. Currently they are planning on the development of a high-speed tilt rotor, capable of reaching speeds of 500 km/p and carrying heavier loads. They are hoping that the growth of the military helicopter industry will spur the development of more civilian helicopters, reports Defence Talk.
