Supposedly the next generation engine for the Pak-ta creates 43,000lbs thrust. That's impressive by any standard especially if it's the same size class as an al-31 but lighter. 86,000lbs thrust is unheard of in a fighter.
Supposing I used the right form of conversion, what you said means that Izd-30 gives 191kN afterburning thrust. That's as much as the F-35 engine.
Truly, a combined A-B thrust of over 382kN would drive the PAK-FA to phenomenal performance levels.
May I ask where did you acquire this info?
