WS-19's thrust is most likely still at or above early AL-31F/F100/F110-level (118 - 127 kN). J-35's internal fuel volume would only be 1.X tonnes less than the Su-27 (which already has a ridiculous amount).
Thrust is close to classic 3rd-gen turbofan engine like old AL31. Internal fuel is around 8 tons.
It might be extremely close to the F100-PW-229, by around 2.2 kN.
29000lbs is pretty much the convention for "大推". I believe there was a discussion about the thrust of WS-10B, when J-10CE first came to Pakistan. I'm not sure whether Yankeesama or Shi Lao mentioned that .
About what? To put simply, the WS-19 wet thrust should be around 129kN while the J-35 should have around 8 tons of internal fuel.Thanks but I'm now more confused than before
We’ve heard that the prototype WS-19 was already reaching 110 kn and they intended to push it further, so in simple terms 115-120 kn should be expected. This shouldn’t be that surprising. With modern materials even the WS-10’s cycle design can be pushed to 150 kn, and the roughly scalar difference between a medium weight and heavyweight engine of the same generation of cycle design should be about 50%.Thanks but I'm now more confused than before
I'm seeing figures ranging from EJ200 thrust all the way to F100-PW-229 thrust. That's a difference of 9000lbf. We'll have to wait for a bit more confirmation I guess.
Cute Orca said that J-35 will have 2D TVC nozzles on the WS-19.
