China Aviation Industry Corporation II
Encyclopedia
China Aviation Industry Corporation II (AVIC II) was a Chinese consortium of aircraft manufacturers. The consortium was created on July 1, 1999 by splitting the state-owned consortium China Aviation Industry Corporation (AVIC) into AVIC I and AVIC II. AVIC I was mainly focused on large planes, while AVIC II was mainly focused on smaller planes, such as trainers (JL-8, L-15, and CJ-6
), small passenger airliners (Harbin Y-12
), medium range transport aircraft (Y-8
), and helicopters (Z-8, Z-9
, WZ-10
and Z-11). On October 28, 2008, the companies officially consolidated back into one organization to more efficiently manage resources and avoid redundant projects.
