The arrival brings the garden's collection to more than 20 exhibits. The collection features a range of iconic hardware, including the CJ-5 trainer, MiG-15, J-8 fighter jets, the Long March-4 carrier rocket and the Chang Kong-1 unmanned target aircraft.
The garden now hosts what is described as the largest outdoor exhibition of physical aerospace equipment in the Yangtze River Delta region. Since 2022, Yufeng Garden has welcomed more than 250,000 visitors each year, offering students and the public an up-close look at China's aerospace heritage.
