Nice drawing, but the main wings are too large for me. I just wonder how CAC can handle so many projects simultaneously?

The picture is just a CGI. The real thing may have internal weapons bays.

We know China has been pushing for improvement in the thrust of the RD-93, .... .... and they got it!!! 94kN to be precise.

JF-17 will use the WS-13, not RD-93.

according to old issue IDR,Klimov been developing 106kn engine for MiG-35 for the last 4 years

Production JF-17's have only been flying with RD-93. We don't even know exactly what the progress of WS-13 is. Looking at the struggle they've had trying to mass produce WS-10, I'd wait for the engine to be installed on production JF-17s before breathing a sigh of relief.

No.. According to CAC spokesmen. They will prefer the Russian one if they manage to upthrust the engine.

WS-13 is a backup if Russia cannot do it.

Its time for China and Pakistan to return the compliment to Russian for allowing RD-93 engine install on FC-1 even when facing pressure from India by buying more RD-93.
