The 15th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition, which opened in south China's Zhuhai City on Tuesday, is highlighting the expansion of aerospace technology into everyday life, marked by a flurry of public welfare project agreements.
China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC) held a signing ceremony on Tuesday for the agreements, which cover numerous major projects, including meteorological satellites, marine satellites, communication satellites, rocket launch services and commercial aerospace as well as strategic emerging industries like the low-altitude economy, advanced equipment and hydrogen energy.
In total, over 70 cooperation agreements and documents indicating intent to cooperate were signed, with a cumulative contract value nearing 60 billion yuan (nearly 8.3 billion U.S. dollars).
At this airshow, the CASC showcased more than 200 of its latest technological achievements, with 150 of these making their debut.
The exhibition, also known as Airshow China, is running from Nov 12 to 17 in Zhuhai, a coastal city of south China's Guangdong Province.
