How legit is this?
can't say much but you can find plenty of chart and data on Chinese internet. i was about to reply him.

WS-10 latest variant thrust reached at 15 tons.

we don't have any credible information about WS-15 specifications. all are top secret.

In fact "Civilian ALONE" seems to be more a fan-boy than insider to me ... he also made a lot of production number estimates timetables and I do not think they are too much correct!

We may one day see the J-35/As with WS-19 engines that are fitted with 2D thrust vectoring nozzles, alongside onboard (almost certainly) J-XDs with WS-XD (i.e. next generation low-B/P turbofan) engines in the future.

There are sayings that Sichuan is responsible for WS-19, whereas Liaoning is responsible for WS-XD.

Note: 黄维娜 is the chief designer of WS-19.

I hope this come true in future, it's going to be pretty cool for J-35 to have a 2D vector nozzles.

But we shouldn't forget that WS-15 use to have 3D vector nozzles as well, and not anymore in J-20B, Yankee explained as something like PLAAF prefer the 10% more trust than the vector nozzles...

I can't imagine what PLAAF or PLAN is going to choose this time...
