The market of China and Russia and their allies/ friends are big enough for this jet.

@Deino can we merge the thread of C919 and C929 as Chinese commercial airliner development discussion.

And make it sticky
 
.
Can we modify C919 to serve as platform for AWACS?

Or ASW like P8I?
Yes I think China should embark on that journey. I think current C919(for civilian use) uses non-Chinese engines, which will not be allowed for use on a platform for military use.

So if China starts now figuring out the engine for C919(whether to use a currently existing Chinese engine or develop another one) and developing other ASW avionics...then by the time a P8 analogous platform(based on C919) is ready and mature not only China would induct it but there would be other countries that would want it.

Now C919 uses Leap x engine, in the future it will use CJ1000A domestic engine.
Look at the picture of CJ1000A, it will be installed on C919 soon.

In China there is an old saying:Golden house and silver house is no better than my thatch house.

And there is also a parallel military grade engine called WS20 is now under test on Y20, we will have two similar engine with different purpose at the same time.

A lot of works need to be done, a brilliant future lay ahead.
