The Y-20 is a large military transport aircraft independently developed by China and officially entered service in 2016. Despite its breakthrough development in recent years, the number is still relatively small, with just over 40 at the moment. This is mainly due to a combination of factors.

First of all, the R&D and production process takes time. The Y-20 is a complex military aircraft whose design and manufacture requires extensive R&D and testing work. In addition, consistent quality and performance need to be ensured during the production process, which takes time to gradually increase production efficiency. As a result, the number of Y-20s grew relatively slowly.

Secondly, economic and resource constraints also affected the number of Y-20s. The development and production of a military aircraft requires a huge investment of money and resources. There is a need to balance the needs of national defense with the requirements of economic development to ensure the rational allocation of resources. This means that in some periods, it may not be possible to massively increase the number of production of the Y-20.

Recently, China's military transport aircraft Y-20 once again showed its excellent performance and great role. In the natural disaster that occurred in Gansu Province, the Y-20 quickly mobilized and quickly delivered relief materials and personnel, demonstrating the important position and role of its strategic air force.

Natural disasters in Gansu Province have caused severe loss of life and property. In the early stages of a disaster, timely delivery of relief materials and personnel to the affected areas is the key to ensuring the safety of people's lives and mitigating the impact of disasters. At this critical juncture, the Y-20 dispatched a number of planes to quickly transport a large number of relief materials and rescue teams to the disaster area.
