At 9:20 am on April 3, Antonov An-124, the world’s second largest strategic transport aircraft, carrying the first batch of XCMG’s multi-functional dust suppression vehicles to fight the “epidemic” in the Middle East, took off from Shenzhen Baoan international airport and arrived safely at the destination on the same day. Since the COVID – 19 epidemic prevention and control, this was the first time that a charter plane is used to transport large epidemic prevention equipment, directly flying to the Middle East to fight the epidemic.
As COVID-19 is raging around the world, many countries are severely affected by the fierce development of the epidemic. Based on the concept of a community of a Shared future for mankind, XCMG has actively assisted the international community in the prevention and control of the epidemic and contributed Chinese power and solution to this fight with its precision production.
First batch of XCMG rescue vehicles loaded on the plane
We come to assist far from thousands of miles with one united heart through the wind and rain. This order is the first time that large-scale domestic specific epidemic prevention equipment is exported through e-commerce platform and also a historic breakthrough for XCMG’s multifunctional dust suppression vehicles exporting in batches, which has the significance of milestone.
The task of epidemic prevention and control in the Middle East is still arduous, and the time for air transportation of equipment is limiting. In order to ensure the efficient and rapid customs clearance of this batch of aid equipment, XCMG strengthened coordination and communication with civil aviation and border inspection departments. Through multi-department collaboration, a valuable “green channel” was opened for this special transportation.
With a weight of 18 tons for each multi-functional dust suppression vehicle, it was not easy to deliver such large scale equipment by air. In order to ensure smooth air transportation, XCMG Zhilian Logistics dispatched five flatbed trailers and ten drivers to drive day and night with non-stop. After 28 hours, they arrived at Shenzhen Airport at 3 am on April 2, and entered the apron at 7 pm. On April 3, five multifunctional dust suppression vehicles were loaded, delivered, and arrived at the destination airport.
