Japan announced plans on Wednesday to develop a next-generation passenger jet over the next decade after the last struggling attempt, led by a private company, was scrapped a year ago. Over the next 10 years, investment totalling five trillion yen ($33 billion) is needed in the industry including for the development of the new passenger plane, the official said.
