What Aecc Ap does

AECC Aviation Power Co., Ltd. (中国航发动力股份有限公司, ticker: 600893) is a Chinese state-owned aerospace engine and gas turbine manufacturer headquartered in Xi'an. The company traces its origins to the State-owned Red Flag Machinery Factory established in 1958 as one of the second batch of Soviet-assisted aviation industrial enterprises. It became the first fully listed aviation power system company in China through its 2008 A-share listing and underwent a major asset restructuring in 2014 that integrated AVIC's Liming, Liyang, and Nanfang engine businesses into a single listed entity. Since 2017, the Aero Engine Corporation of China (AECC) has functioned as the actual controlling shareholder, and the firm operates as a major production base for large and medium-sized aviation engines and gas turbine power devices in China.

The company's core products span military and civil aviation engines, gas turbines for power generation, and emerging next-generation propulsion systems including the world's first megawatt-class hydrogen turboprop engine (which completed a maiden unmanned flight) and an entirely 3D-printed turbojet engine. It maintains long-term strategic supply partnerships with all four major Western engine OEMs — General Electric, Rolls-Royce, SAFRAN, and Pratt & Whitney Canada — serving as an overseas premium supplier for nearly 100 component types. R&D is anchored at facilities including the AECC Hunan Aviation Powerplant Research Institute, and the company holds national honors including the National Science and Technology Progress Award (Special).

AECC Aviation Power generates revenue primarily through B2B hardware sales across three segments: domestic military aviation (defense procurement), domestic civil aviation, and international component supply to foreign OEMs. Procurement is centralized through its AECC Mall online platform (aecc-mall.com), and the firm employs over 10,000 people across headquarters, integrated manufacturing subsidiaries, and engineering facilities. With over 60 years of continuous operation, the company combines a state-owned national-defense mandate with selective participation in global aerospace supply chains.
