Re: Test Flaws Postpone JF-17

A few days ago someone said that prototype 06 has been reengined with a RD-93 after flying for some time with the WS-13 ...

To admit I'm a bit surprised since I don't know a single image of a WS-13-powered FC-1 (06) and all recent images seem to show only a standard RD-93.

Can anyone help me out with this ??

Simple reasoning... They make WS-13 look like a RD-93.. WS-13 suppose to borrow the core from RD-93 but probably with a more superior turbine blade to up the thrust. That means the WS-13 engine petal might be similar to RD-93. You wouldn't know which is which but just need to trust the big shrimp words!

O.k. but I was surprised since he (actually I don't know who) mentioned that he can differ both by the look !

Safari double posts all the time as well, but it seems for some reason the forum notices and every time I make a post, I get taken to the 'sorry you cannot make two posts so close together' page. Annoying but not as annoying as double posting.

The forum has been having issues with doubt posting for a while now, they just cannot seem to fix it for some reason.
