Like all governments the Chinese government is giving its national aircraft corporation, the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China, Ltd. (COMAC), support. The government made it obligatory for foreign aviation companies that want to supply to China to partner with COMAC and establish joint-ventures to get technology transfer via the ARJ21 and C919 projects. No company, including Western companies wants to give its intellectual property away without compensation. Therefore those Western companies that agreed to the terms of technology transfer for the C919 did so with old versions of their technology.
