Split
China Aviation Industry Corporation (Template:Zh) was a Chinese consortium of aircraft manufacturers. On July 1, 1999, this consortium was split into AVIC I and AVIC II.
Merge
On October 28, 2008, AVIC I and AVIC II officially merged because the previous separation resulted in split resources and led to redundant projects. The major focus of AVIC is to efficiently develop indigenous military technologies and to eventually compete with Boeing and Airbus in the civilian airline industry.
During the Airshow China 2008, AVIC appeared to the public for the first time.
