We now know what is the engine that power WLII via Defengcao
AECC AEP80 800kw turboprop engine can be used on 2~4 tons single engine or 5~8 tons twin engines aircraft, AEP50E 500kw turboprop engine is used as UAV's engine. It seems WL-2 is powered by this engine.
The difference between CH4 and WL II is CH 4 use piston engine and WL II Turbo prop

Why should words of this "Alan Warnes" be given any value?
If my memory serves me right, Alan Warnes used to be a contributor journalist for the "Air Forces Monthly" magazine. He has also authored a book on PAF, titled "A New Dawn - Pakistan Air Force." I've read his articles, and seems to be a fairly decent journalist in terms of credibility. Meaning he is unbiased ... so far (knock on wood).
Are there specs for this drone and its small missiles? How small and what kind of guidance?
