People's Republic of China Military Aircraft and Missile Designations

Here I have attempted to compile a list of all types of aircraft used, purchased, planned, or proposed by the Chinese military.

I have also included the designations for missiles.

I will try to keep this list as accurate and current as possible. However, the list as it now is by no means complete, and I welcome you to mail any contributions, corrections, or suggestions to me.
