Hi Huitong, a recent discussion on SDF brought up the following questions:
1. Are you sure that the Divine Eagle uses a WS-11? It looks awfully big for that engine.
2. What would be the cruising endurance for it? 10 hrs seems a bit short.
Thanks!

1. Based on the size of the J-11 next to the UAV, the engine does not look that big. It should not be as big as a RD-33. Unless China has a turbofan engine available in the size between WS-11 and RD-33... 2. Did I say exactly 10 hours? It could be anything above 10 hours. I will update once the more accurate numbers are available.
Hope this helps.
