its not a copy but a different design with more thrust and FADEC.

JL-XX have new Engines as per the rumors.

Do we have some publications for WS-17? I've been trying to find some, but it seems to be almost nothing recently but if the 5tf target is real than JL-XX is going to be a very capable trainer and light fighter. It'll have slightly more thrust than the latest Gripen-E!
