It turns out my previous prediction that MA700 project is dead due to US engine ban is wrong. China is still pushing it forward.
The new domestic engine AEP500 has better specs than Canadian PW150C.
Of course I still doubt if it can sell as I think it is less competitive than high speed rails in China. If it can only export, will foreign buyers accept the new engine?

Doubt its the AEP500, this engine I believe is still the development stage. Likely candidate shall be the WJ-6 used on Y-9.

Seven leasing companies signed orders to buy 300 C919 aircraft and 30 ARJ21 aircraft with COMAC on Tuesday, at the ongoing Airshow China 2022 in Zhuhai, South China’s Guangdong Province, according to COMAC.
