It seems that China is really putting a lot of resources into the Y-20 program. It has been flying less than 3 years and we are already seeing 5 prototypes.
Yes, good point Franklin, but no WS-15s seen on any Y-20 pictures is telling by their absence.

We won't see WS-15s on Y-20... WS-20s are the powerplant intended for Y-20, big difference.

But yes, WS-20 isn't on the prototype Y-20s... no surprises there. I think most of us expected the initial batch of Y-20s to enter service with D-30s/WS-18s... no one's under any illusion that China's turbofan industry has reached the same stage of maturity as the rest of its aerospace industry.
