COMAC coverage spans Chinese regional and mainline passenger jets across 2 Airchive families, balancing active fleets with historically important retired types.
This manufacturer page clusters 2 current and historic jet families under a single lineage view so crawlers and readers can move from maker to family to variant without URL duplication or taxonomy drift.
Airchive groups COMAC aircraft by family first, which keeps airliner, regional jet lineage readable instead of scattering it across disconnected model pages.
