据10月3日的《中国航空报》消息《董建华考察一航黎明》：一航黎明领导陪同董建华一行参观了装配试车厂。在发动机总装车间，董建华一行饶有兴趣地观看了“太行”、“昆仑”航空发动机总装流水线。在试车台前，董建华亲手拉动操纵杆，看到“太行”发动机运转良好，他露出了满意的笑容。 | Zcy19?T
　　从上述报道中可以看出，“太行”、“昆仑”在一航黎明已经投入批量生产！ &O10^Fd

It's just saying that some big shot went to see WS-10A and Kunlun engines starting mass production.

Kunlun engine was original design for F-8 aircraft,3 years ago,interview with the chief engineer,he do not rule out using WP-14 core technology to develop turbofan engine,but with China obtain liscense to produce RD-33,but the project may be in question.

Indigenously produced fighter tends to be the code name for J-11.

New generation fighter tends to be the code name for J-10. Also see New type of fighter.

Leak or low bypass. For fighter use that is better. You use high bypass for high economy civil purposes like jetliners.

hey this is a chart posted online comparing the stats of WS-10A to other engines. The interesting part is the specs on Taihong II. The T/W ratio improved from 7.5 to 9.5, but the thrust only went up from 132 to 155 kN. I guess the engine is getting smaller?

The weights would be 1760kg and 1630kg respectively; I'd say its more likely that dimensions are the same but improved materials reduced the weight.

that sounds like quite a likely possibly. Anyhow more on engine with China.
SHANGHAI (XFN-ASIA) - China's AVIC I Xi'an Aero-engine (Group) Ltd has
signed a contract to provide 317 mln usd worth of engines and spare parts to
General Electric (GE) and France's Snecma, the official Xinhua news agency
reported.
The state-owned company has signed a 140 mln usd supply contract with GE and
a 177 mln contract with Snecma, it said.
