The aerospace industry in the Jingjiang Economic and Technological Development Zone – located in Jingjiang city, in East China's Jiangsu province – has seen rapid growth of late. 

At GKN Aerospace Components (Jingjiang) Company, a subsidiary of GKN Aerospace, advanced production equipment now efficiently completes aircraft windshield heating layer printing. 

After the Spring Festival holiday, the company quickly resumed its manufacturing, focusing on aircraft windshield assemblies for Boeing, Airbus and other civil airliners.

Notably, it has produced cockpit front windshield glass for the Airbus A320 aircraft and plans to expand its production and maintenance services to various other airliners.

In addition, the KAIFEI civil aerostructure manufacturing joint venture project – a collaboration between COMAC, AVIC and GKN Aerospace – is said to be making significant progress in the zone. 

The project aims to establish a world-class civil aircraft parts manufacturing base – integrating the expertise of the three parties in aviation designs, manufacturing, lean management and supply chain integration services.

The joint venture represents its first investment project in Jiangsu province and is set to encompass design, research and development, manufacturing and supplies – marking a significant stride taken in the region's aerospace industry.

Moving forwards, plans are for the Jingjiang zone to capitalize on its  competitive advantages and adaptability in aerospace manufacturing. 

It plans to seize opportunities in the field of large aircraft and commercial spaceflight, expand orbital science and technology – and to cultivate engines, drones and integrated aircraft components. 

The focus will be on accelerating aerospace manufacturing, promoting industrial specialization, mass production and high-end development.
