Mitsubishi Aircraft Corp. is accusing Bombardier Inc. of using "anti-competitive conduct" to limit competition for planes with less than 100 seats, as the Japanese company works to bring its long-delayed regional jet to the market.

The MRJ will compete with regional jets produced by Bombardier and Brazil's Embraer SA.
