Chengdu Aircraft Design Institute
The Chengdu Aircraft Research & Design Institute (CADI), or 611 Research and Design Institute ( zh, c=成都飞机设计研究所, p=Chéngdū fēijī shèjì yánjiūsuǒ), is a design institute and works with the Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group for military aircraft. Built in 1970, it covers an area of 310,000 square meters. History In May 1970, the Shenyang design team for the J-9 moved to Chengdu; this was part of the " Third Line" program that moved defence industries to the interior to make them less vulnerable to foreign attack. The team was later renamed as the 611 Institute. The design work on the cancelled double-canard J-9 influenced later CADI designs. The Chengdu J-10 used the double-canard layout. The Chengdu J-20 also used canards.

Aerospace
Aerospace is a term used to collectively refer to the atmosphere and outer space. Aerospace activity is very diverse, with a multitude of commercial, industrial and military applications. Aerospace engineering consists of aeronautics and astronautics. Aerospace organizations research, design, manufacture, operate, or maintain both aircraft and spacecraft. The beginning of space and the ending of the air is considered as 100 km (62 mi) above the ground according to the physical explanation that the air pressure is too low for a lifting body to generate meaningful lift force without exceeding orbital velocity. Overview In most industrial countries, the aerospace industry is a cooperation of the public and private sectors. For example, several states have a civilian space program funded by the government, such as NASA, National Aeronautics and Space Administration in the United States, European Space Agency in Europe, the Canadian Space Agency in Canada, Indian Space Re ...
