That is finalizing of the design of WS-10G, not production date in 2011. Now in 2015, production batch for J-10C is seen. WS-10A already put into production in the 2013 but only recently drum up in larger number in late 2014 which seen equipped on J-11B, J-11BS, J-15 , J-15S and J-16I must say ChineseTiger is the most optimistic guy about Taihang engines. He flooded the forum since 2011, 2012, 2013... with threads like "Confirmed! WS10 on J10A, J10B, J20, ..."
while with help of Deino we know that at this moment only WS10A work on J11
I'm not optimistic. I wish Vietnam would lift the engine ban on China for their fighter engine.I must say ChineseTiger is the most optimistic guy about Taihang engines. He flooded the forum since 2011, 2012, 2013... with threads like "Confirmed! WS10 on J10A, J10B, J20, ..."

2 J-10C with WS-10G, more will be seen soon.
The first squadron of J-10C will formed very soon and remaining J-10B will be retrofitted into J-10C standard.
140KN, comfirmed by AVIC chairman of China.Sir, How much thrust does the WS10G provide.
Going by Wikipedia (which is not at all reliable) it is between 152 ~ 155Kn?
But for this to be true, we must get approval and confirmation from pdf Vietnamese experts140KN, comfirmed by AVIC chairman of China.
Any news on the engine? Will J31 or j20 in the end have thrust vectoring like F22 has?

New Recruit
Indeed this is J-10B.Those are J-10Bs, not J-10Cs; note the lack of a second dorsal antenna and VLOC antenna on its vertical stabilizer.

--Also, anyone can give me a confirmation that the WS-10 engines on this two aircrafts are actually WS-10G with 14000 kgf of thrust, instead of WS-10A with something around 12500~13000kgf thrust? On what ground can you assert that the engines shown in the photos are WS-10G? AFAIK pb on CJDBY stated that the 14000kgf WS-10G was still in test phase.
The price would also skyrocket, rendering he entire idea behind the JF-17 as being pointless. It would be cool, but the thunder is suppose to be a cheap, replaceable workhorse. If you want TVC and other advanced features, may as well go for an Sukhoi.The supercruise version of JF-17 with TVC would be cool.

That's not to say that it won't get these in the future blocks, but only when PAF has the funds for such a thing.
