How the C909 fits into the C909 story
C909 is the representative branch of the COMAC C909 family, capturing the renamed current-service branch formerly marketed as the ARJ21.
This page isolates the C909 branch of the COMAC C909 family, focusing on the engines, service entry, seating, range, and mission role that justify a dedicated variant page while keeping the family history on the canonical parent URL.

Why it branches from the family
The C909 is treated as the representative branch because it captures the renamed current-service branch formerly marketed as the ARJ21.
Variant pages stay intentionally narrower than the family page so differences in cabin, engines, mission, and market role remain clear without duplicating the full program history.

Variant pages stay intentionally narrower than family pages. They isolate meaningful technical or commercial differences while the canonical family page holds the broader historical narrative.
