Curious to see whether they are able to produce engines in sufficiently large volumes, and, which engines these exports will receive.

Allegedly, the WS-19 entered production earlier this year, but presumably, those are all destined for domestic J-31/35 production, and exports will continue to use the WS-13E.

Don't think engine is bottleneck on J-31 production tbh
