Another images of Y-9's cargo bay.

I remember when China was trying to order IL-76 cargo + IL78 tankers from Russia

now China has Y20 is large quantities good to see China going it alone and also with indigenous engines

OMG, is this legit? Much larger in size than Y-20+D-30?

Yes, WS-20 has around twice the diameter of the D-30.

This meant that WS-20 has more thrust than D-30, hence allowing the Y-20 to carry her original maximum designed payload of 66+ tons.
