Japan looks to collaborate with the private sector to develop a next-generation passenger aircraft, hoping to avoid the pitfalls that doomed Mitsubishi Heavy Industries' SpaceJet by encouraging the participation of multiple companies and helping create technology standards, Nikkei has learned.

The project is expected to explore propulsion systems beyond jet engines that are mainstream now, including the development of hydrogen-combustion engines.

The public and private sectors together will invest 5 trillion yen ($33 billion) to debut the airliner by around 2035. Details will be included in a strategy to be announced soon by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.
