can we say now that

J20 and J10C have indigenous engines

however the J15 still has Russian engine

J16 is using WS-series engines? what about J16D?

J11D was using also WS-series?

J11BS now all WS-Series?

What do you mean by saying "mastered the turbofan"? Difference turbofan has different level of technology and different uses. It is not what you think but depends on condition

The numbers do not look encouraging, if accurate, for the new engines to be introduced.
