COMAC C919 deliveries fall far short of targets amid US export license delays

Sources
- COMAC has received more than 1,000 orders for its C919 jet from Chinese airlines, but delivered only 15 aircraft in 2025, well below the 75‑aircraft target, and just three in the first quarter of 2026.
- The United States Commerce Department has delayed export licences for civil aircraft parts to China, a factor that could affect the C919 programme, while GE Aerospace is being considered as a potential engine supplier for the aircraft.
