Comparison of Russian MC 21 vs Chinese C919 aircraft

hello and welcome to jetline marvel in this video we'll talk about two new russian and chinese aircraft let's have a look at their specs and capabilities in comparison to western aircraft the boeing 737 and airbus a 320 series have dominated the single-aisle market for the past four decades however two more aircraft the irkut mc21 from russia and the comaxin 919 from china have entered the competition both are nearing the end of the fitness certificate process for commercial use it has already received approval from each own aviation authority and it will shortly begin testing for worldwide aviation agency approval in this video we compare the comax c900 and the irkut mc21 to see how good they are let's get this started the commercial aircraft corporation of china is a state-owned aircraft manufacturer situated in shanghai in may of 2008 the company was founded comac on the other hand is aiming for a bigger market with its next design its c919 design flew for the first time in may 2017 this aircraft is aimed at the 150 to 200 seat single isle market the boeing 737 and airbus a320 families are now dominating this market [Music] the mc21 a russian-designed airliner is manufactured by ear coot a part of russia's united aircraft corporation the yakovlev design bureau which designed the plane is also a subsidiary of irkut on december 25th 2019 it took to the skies for the first time the first delivery of the mc21 is scheduled later this year with russian flag carrier aeroflot as the first customer irkut a subsidiary of russia's united aircraft corporation manufactures the mc21 a russian-designed airliner yakovlev design bureau the plains designer is also an ear coot subsidiary the mc21 which was supposed to be released in 2012 has also been significantly delayed in terms of technical considerations each aircraft have unique characteristics when it comes to seating capacity in two classes comac aircraft can accommodate up to 158 passengers while earcut aircraft can accommodate up to 163 passengers c919 has a one class capacity of 168 passengers while mc21 has a capacity of 211 passengers the c 919 has a maximum range of 5555 kilometers whereas the mc21 has a range of 6000 kilometers the c919 is 38.9 meters long whereas the mc21 is 42.2 meters long c919 has a 35.8 meter wingspan while mc21 has a 35.9 meter wingspan c919 stands at approximately 11.95 meters whereas mc21 can reach a height of 11.5 meters the maximum thrust per engine on both aircraft is up to 31 000 pound the number of orders received by comac is estimated to be around 1008 aircraft these are distributed between 28 customers obviously the number will grow owing to the huge demand traffic in china and mc21 has only received 251 orders with the majority of aircraft ordered by aeroflot which will soon increase in number because neither aircraft has yet entered service determining criteria such as safety comfort and other factors is challenging other metrics that can be measured include orders certification maintenance and price icroot is now working on two variants of the mc21 and 300 at the same time the mc21200 costs around 72 million dollars while the mc21 300 costs around 91 million dollars the c919s maximum takeoff weight is 72 500 kilograms while the mc21s is roughly 79 250 kilograms c919 has a payload of roughly 20 400 kilograms while mc21 has a payload of around 18 900 kilograms the c919 has a fuel capacity of 19 560 kilograms while the mc21 has a capacity of roughly 20 400 kilograms [Music] by choice the c919 will use a foreign engine that is already in use on boeing 737 and airbus a320 aircraft this aircraft is highly praised for its ability to reduce noise levels both inside and outside the cabin currently it has a cfm leap 1c engine installed when it comes to engine selection ekut has a choice it has one engine the av vigatel pd14 which was developed in russia it was designed specifically for the mc21 aircraft and debuted last year with this engine another is the american-built pratt and whitney engine which is also used in a 220 aircraft comac is presently building only one model of the aircraft but if the c919 is a success it is likely that more may be developed in the future the c919 is currently selling for roughly 68.7 million dollars on average however other sources indicate it is less this is because the c919 and the mc21 will each cost 72 million dollars whereas the 737-800 will cost 82 million dollars and the a 320 neo will cost 110.8 million dollars [Music] which aircraft out of the c919 and mc21 do you think is the most cost effective for airlines in the comments area let us know if you think these two planes will overtake the aviation industry in the future if you are new to our channel please subscribe [Music] you
