The CR400AF Fuxing (Chinese: 复兴号; pinyin: Fùxīng Hào) is a Chinese electric high-speed train developed by CRRC Changchun Railway Vehicles and manufactured by CRRC Qingdao Sifang. As part of the China Standardized EMU, the CR400AF is designed to operate at a cruise speed of 350 km/h (217 mph) and a maximum speed of 420 km/h (261 mph) in commercial service. Development on the project started in 2012, and the design plan was finished in September 2014. The first EMU rolled off the production line on 30 June 2015.[2] The series received its current designation of Fuxing in June 2017, with the nickname Red Dragon.[3] It is among the world's fastest conventional high-speed trains in regular service, with an operating speed of 350 km/h (217 mph).

A derivative version of this train known as KCIC400AF or Komodo Merah (lit. 'red komodo dragon') or Petir Merah (lit. 'red lightning') is exported for operations in Indonesia on their Jakarta–Bandung high-speed railway.[4][5]

Hal tersebut sudah menjadi standar penamaan dari pihak konsorsium mengingat EMU dan CIT KCJB memiliki konfigurasi khusus yang menjadikannya unik dan berbeda dengan tipe lainnya" (in Indonesian) – via Instagram.
