The AG600 amphibious aircraft is expected to take its maiden flight over land in the first half of 2017 and on water in the second half, said its developer, the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC). 国有飞机制造商中国航空工业集团公司近日宣布，其研发的水陆两栖飞机AG600预计今年上半年实现陆上首飞，下半年实现水上首飞。
Similar in size to the Boeing 737, the AG600 will be the world's largest amphibious aircraft, according to the state aircraft maker the AVIC.
据中航工业介绍，AG600飞机的尺寸与波音737相当，将是世界上最大的水陆两栖飞机。
The 37-meter AG600, with a wingspan of 38.8 meters, has a maximum take-off weight of 53.5 tons.
AG600机长37米，翼展38.8米，最大起飞重量53.5吨。
The aircraft has already received 17 intent orders due to its multiple uses in fighting forest fires and marine rescue, according to AVIC.
中航工业称，由于在森林灭火和水上救援中有多种用途，AG600飞机已获得意向订单17架
The first AG600 was completed in the southern city of Zhuhai in July last year, and shown to the public at the 2016 China Airshow.
第一架AG600飞机是在去年7月于南方城市珠海完工的，并在2016年中国航展上向公众展示。
According to chief designer Huang Lingcai, "The AG600 is like a ship that can fly" due to its advanced gas-water dynamic engineering and underwater corrosion resistance technology.
按首席设计师黄领才的话说，AG600就像是一艘能飞起来的船，这是因为其具备先进的气水动融合设计和水下耐腐蚀技术。
With four China-made turboprop engines, the AG600 has a "ship's body" with high mounted single-cantilever wing. It can collect 12 tonnes of water in 20 seconds, and transport up to 370 tonnes of water on a single tank of fuel.
