Its a Rolls Royce Spey basically. Pretty neat to see its still around.

20lbf max thrust wow

You mean 20000 lbf (which is ~89 kN). Though, the Jetank UAV certainly won't be needing any afterburner, so the WS-9's engine thrust output would only be about 12000 lbf (i.e. ~54 kN).

Good enough as a glide bomb/cruise missile truck.
