so key point so far
- solid titanium Alloy fan blade
- Digital authority control system.
- Thrust ratio 7.8 (anything, 8.0 is great, so its close)
- Length 4.14 meters
- Diameter 1.02 meters
- operating weight 1,135 kilograms (RD33 dry weight is about 1055 kg)
- Augmentation thrust force 86.37000 kN (19391 lbs) , RD-33 basic had 81.4 kN (~18,300 lbs), 1kN = ~224.5 lbs
- Min. augmented thrust 56.75000 (12,749 lbs) kN with consumption of .73 lbs /hour /lb of thrust (better than RD-33 dry of .77)
- Cruise thrust 51.2000 kN(11,494 lbs) with consumption of .65lbs /hour /lb of thrust (RD-33 had .77 lbs/hr /lb of thrust at mil./dry thrust)
- a bypass ratio 0.57 (far better than .49 of RD-33), a reason for better fuel consumption
- turbine wheel temperature 1650K
- total pressure 23 (do not know what it means ?? )
- Mean Time Between Overhaul is separated for 810 hours (4-5 year)
- total life is 2,200 hours (12-15 years).
- 1/4 th the price of of western equivalent (just my guess)
- May be cheaper then Russian RD Series (just my guess)
- Do not know about TVC ??
- Availability ?? 20XX ??"

Guizhou WS-13
The WS-13 Taishan (WoShan-13) is a turbofan engine designed and manufactured by Guizhou Aircraft Industry Corporation to power the jointly developed FC-1 Xiaolong / JF-17 Thunder light-weight multi-role fighter.
Design and development
China began development of the Taishan in 2000 to replace the Klimov RD-93 turbofan, which had been selected in the 1990s to power the JF-17 / FC-1 light-weight fighter. It is designed to have a
life span of 2,200 hours and an improved version, providing around 100 kN (22,450 lb) of thrust with afterburner, is under development.[1]
The WS-13 Taishan was certified in 2007 and serial production began in 2009.[citation needed]
The 18 March 2010 edition of the HKB report stated that a FC-1 equipped with the WS-13 completed its first successful runway taxi test.[2]
Officials at the Farnborough International Airshow in August 2010 stated that a JF-17 development aircraft is flying with a Chinese engine, which is most likely to be the WS-13. [3]
