Chinese Taihang WS-15 Jet engine better than Pratt & Whitney's Engines

aihang Military Core Tip: According to Reuters, said some Chinese aerospace industry experts predict that in the next two years time, Beijing will eventually be put up in the engine field of 300 billion yuan (about 49 billion U.S. dollars).

Recent Russian media reported that Chinese J-20 stealth fighter will be equipped with thrust of 18 tons of WS-15 engines. Fifth Session of the Eleventh CPPCC National Committee, before the opening session, a reporter to the CPPCC National Committee, Air Force Major General Zhu Heping asked "whether to use the F-20 engine of autonomy", Zhu said peace replied: "Yes!" He did not disclose further more more technical details and development progress. This is the first time the military force F-20 responded to the question.
In the 2010-2012 three-year period, Shenyang Liming company has produced about 266 units "Taihang" engine, in order to protect the production of F -11 fighter series. Despite a lot about China in the manufacturing of advanced engine problematic reports, but also admitted that China has its own flaws, but the WS-10A engine performance for the Su-27 series aircraft is not bad, and the future of the engine performance is likely to be further enhanced.
For many years many foreigners have jeered at China's jet engines disparaging their lack of power and small thrust to weight ratio. Indeed China's engine were not competitive ralative to American jet engines and Russian jet engines. But beginning a few years ago China had embarked on a program to accelerate the development of indigneous jet engines to break through the bottleneck that is threatening to hold back the development of China's air defense. Even though China has developed superior radars, avionics, missiles, and stealth fighters, it must still rely on Russian engines to equip its fighters. This is not only a national shame but a dangerous deficit. But over the last several years China had not only increased the funding for R&D but have also assigned more scientists and engineers to research and develop every aspect of jet engines from materials to software programs. The results are now showing up in the continuing improvement of China's jet engines.
As indicated by the data given below, China's Taihang engine now has better characteristics than the Pratt-Whitney F-119 used to power America's F-22 Raptor. This means with the lighter and more powerful Taihang the J-20 will be able to fly faster and maneuver more nimbly to shoot down F-22. And with a lighter engine more power can be used to fly the plane and not the engine itself. Therefore, J-20 will have longer combat radius which means it can attack enemy targets at greater distances. For example, J-20 taking off from China can reach every part of Japan within 1,500 km. So with lighter engines with more powerful thrust Chinese fighter bombers such as J-11, J-16, J-20, J-31, etc. can all reach Japan.
China will obviously continue to improve on its engines. Soon Chinese engines will not only be more powerful and lighter but will also last longer and be less costly to build and above all be more reliable. Those who disparage Chinese engines saying China cannot develop a good engine for another several decades can now eat their words. China has developed a superior jet engine already.
I give the specifications of Pratt-Whitney F-119 engine and China's Taihang jet engine:
Taihang: [1]
thrust: 161 kN
power to weight ratio: 8.86
Pratt-Whitney, F-119: [2]
thrust: 156 kN
power to weight ratio: 7.95
The Pratt-Whitney F-119 is used to power F-22 Raptor, America's premier stealth fighter. Obviously, China's J-20 powered by the Taihand engine will be superior to the F-22.

that means

This is a military engine for the J-20/J-31.

It says it needs two more years of development work.

2 more years
that means in 2015 the year
when Chinese will be able to offer their new C-919 planes .
