wonderful , i think PAF is involved in its development too , it is a future bird for PAF.

I think maybe Iran or ksaMaybe PAF will be the first one in South Asia to produce 5th gen fighter in the near future.
Any information or specifications available for WS13E?WE13E
not at all , F35 is nowhere , F16s are refused , TFX is on paper may or may not mature . Pakistan has no other choice available. Secondly now Chinese scientists and engineers have really bridged the technological gap between European and Chinese defence products . We have JF17 as a best example of quality and reliabilty.So i am sure PAF will go for fc31.I think maybe Iran or ksa
Paf are more infatuated with west options,like Tfx or F35
Max wet thrust: >90KNAny information or specifications available for WS13E?
Max wet thrust: >90KN
Weight: 1050KG
Life span: 3000 hours

yes officially confirmed that it is using WS-13E . Check the other SAC FC31 thread , a guy their posted a link in which an official confirms ws13eIs there official statement that engines are chi nese ws13 or rd93 modified version???
I guess everyone is guessing correct?

bro clearly its not a rd93 coz its even darkerJust look at the picture we don't need official statement
I know a very senior GD engineer who would state otherwise. The Israelis sent a fairly large team to FW to learn to maintain their own jets in house and manufacture spare parts. In their goodwill , the GD engineers were very open to them. Information that ended up on the Lavi, and information that was shared beyond IAI.
Not saying that the J-10 is the lavi or that the program originated from there. But a lot of concepts were shared, and then a lot of assistance was taken from the Russians too.
Just because international relations point in one direction doesnt mean that cooperation for cash stops. The F-7MGs wing isnt something thought up in house either, or at least not without inspiration.
I am searching for an image from an old Grumman notebook which shows the idea for the cranked delta done by the Grumman engineer during the Super 7 program.
Please do not misconstrue my inference on information as indicating that IAI engineers sat in Chengdu or anything of that sort. I am referring to information sharing , idea sharing and so on which was very much a monetary transaction.Since you are quoting a senior engineer, i will accept it otherwise Jian10 & lavi programmes have nothing in common. I have been involved, I aught to know.
