If you find my knowledge more useless than his stupid questions and otherwise nationalistic posts more interesting, you should probably look for another forum?
From this angle, these new birds seem to be powered by the W-20? The short answe is the ? should not be there. It then will read from this angle these new birds seem to be powered by the W-20.
I would like everyone to move on, why waste so much time to argue and win brownie points?

Oh come on! First be correct, since there is no W-20, but these are clearly WS-20 as already discussed to death since pages before

Unexpectedly, the Y-20 equipped with WS-20 appeared on Army-2022 as an export model. This means China believes WS-20 is mature enough to be sold as a shelf product

C-17 production has ceased. Russians are still struggling to mass produce Il-476. If someone needs military transport capable of carrying modern MBTs and doesn't want to buy secondhand, there's no alternative.

You know there is a continent that's grappling with renewed fear of land war and whose strategic airlifting force consists of a grand total of 3 C-17s. Maybe they should consider getting themselves some Y-20s?
