LOL ... the money still leave in Chinese packet, not foreigner's and improve domestic industry. It's a simple principle but most ppl in this world do not know they just buy "made in China" from a successful country.

The rich get rich, the poor still get poor. The wise get more intelligence, the stupid get more fool.

Good question I am also wondering News about Y-9 and Y-9 based MPA, Y-9 was suppose to be future replacement of Y-8 platform.

It is not WS-20. The engine tested on IL-76 testbed is the WS-10A and the pictures are old.

Where is Henri K. hk299792458 I asked him about Y-9 Transport and Y-9MPA No latest information?

Man China could really use this in a conflict with India at the border. This would allow paratroopers and supplies to be constantly dropped into the war zone and give China a significant advantage.

Though I understand this is a 10 year 300 units kinda deal.
@Luftwaffe

The latest info I know is that it is already part of the Chinese armed forces as of this moment. With more on the way of course.

This pretty much says in order of picture.

First dimension of the transport

The max length of the cargo 16 meters

max load 8.2 tons

last one is paratroopers and how they would be seated.

The different types of planes that the Y-9 could be modified into.

Y-9 (at least one) has been used for aide transport in Sichuan, you can see it on the left of the KJ-200 used there...

And a copper of them are in service in PLAAF...

GX-6 is visible in CFTE through Google Earth
