The regional jet ARJ21 independently developed by China and owning complete independent intellectual property right was officially delivered to its first overseas customer TransNusa on December 18th, 2022. This is the first time for China's jet to enter the overseas market, which is of great significance for the construction of "The Belt and Road Initiative" and the building of the new development pattern of "dual-cycle".

The ARJ21 aircraft delivered to TransNusa is in all economy-class cabin configuration with seats for 95 passengers. The cabin interior, passenger seats and exterior painting are all custom-designed, and the passenger seats are made of full leather seat fabric. The fuselage is printed with a national flag of Indonesia, and the exterior painting is designed based on the hues of the logo of TransNusa, with blue for the sky, yellow for people, green for the earth.

Indonesia, as the largest economy in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), is one of the world's fast-growing civil aviation markets. Indonesia has many islands, and is suitable for the operation of regional jets.

The aircraft has excellent performance in high temperature conditions, crosswind capability and night operability. Up to now, nearly one hundred ARJ21 aircraft have been delivered for operation, successively operated in more than 300 routes in more than 100 cities, and carried more than 5.6 million passengers. The safety and reliability of the aircraft have been verified.
