Chinese Engine Development

Why not move this thread to another subforum? I personally prefer having one thread for both marine and aero power plant development, don't think there is enough information or news density to warrant two separate threads.

No its fine the way it is.

I'm skeptical.... I'm pretty sure he's referring to this picture, which was posted on the Transport/Tanker/Airlift thread



If this was indeed the case, it's cowling's were opened as @Deino pointed out, and therefore making the engines appear larger as if WS-20s were installed

Who is this guy? Is he credible? Does he have a track record of accuracy? Is he an industry insider? Did you go through his channel to get an idea if this guy is a credible or a crackpot? Did you verify anything before you shared this?
