The story

Founded by Aviation Industry Corporation of China, Ltd. on May 11, 2008.1

Origins

The Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China (Comac) was established on 11 May 2008 in Shanghai. It was established jointly by Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), Aluminum Corporation of China, Baosteel Group Corporation, Sinochem Group, Shanghai Guosheng Corporation Limited, and State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission.

U.S. sanctions

In January 2021, the United States government named Comac as a company "owned or controlled" by the People's Liberation Army (PLA) and thereby prohibited any American company or individual from investing in it. In January 2025, Comac was added to a United States Department of Defense list of companies that allegedly work with the PLA. In May 2025, the U.S. tightened export controls on certain parts previously shipped to Comac.
