the engines are too narrow to be the ws-20 it would e the ws-18 as an interm engineFormally delivered and/or commissioned

Consider US has 300 c5 + c17. What does china need 1000 y20 for? China doesn't have much power projection need as US. This thing costs money, you know.
Yes for sure and actually I can't think that the first operational birds will already use the WS-20 especially since no Y-20-prototype has been spotted with a WS-20 before.
There is no doubt about the existence of Y-20 prototype with all 4 engines being WS-20.
People in possession of pics simply wouldn't risk being invited for a cup of coffee in a small dark room 20 flights of stairs down the ground level.
786/787We want frontal pics of the Y-20 with 4 WS-20 engines installed.!
Whoever has the pics pls....
786/787
So You assume that already two Y-20 are converted to WS-20s ??
But wait: 786 and 787 ???
I thought only 781, 783, 785, 788 and 789 are confirmed !
One moment please ... and this one in the top-left corner ?

The only aircraft shown here with four wider engines is an Il-76LL and surely not a Y-20 ... just look at the wings, the length and other small details (like that small bump in front of the wings); it's the famous Il-76LL.

Or do You think on this image these are the old D-30s and their engine cowlings are open making the engines look wider ?

I think,it's a IL -76LL. Till now all the pic of an operational WS-20 was onboard a IL-76.If they think it's ready and want to install 4 engine at once, it's logical they will do it on a IL-76LL first.One moment please ... and this one in the top-left corner ?
