JANE'S DEFENCE WEEKLY - FEBRUARY 04, 2004

J-10 power plants delivered to China
MMPP Salyut, the Moscow-based machine building enterprise, completed a two-year contract in January to supply China with a batch of 125.5 kN AL-31FN double-flow turbofan engines.

In all, 54 engines were delivered during 2001-2003, according to a military-diplomatic source.

The AL-31FN engine powers the single-engine J-10 (F-10) fighter aircraft developed by the Chengdu Aircraft Industrial Corporation. Serial production of these fighters began in 2003. Experts believe that a total of 300 aircraft of this type are planned.

Research and development of the AL-31FN at MMPP Salyut was completed in 2000, with deliveries to China starting at the end of 2001. The base price of the AL-31FN is US$3 million.

One of the variants of the AL-31FN engine features a fully variable, rotating, thrust-vector control (TVC) nozzle designed by the Klimov Design Bureau in St Petersburg. This has been exhibited on Salyut's display stand at foreign air shows. The engines being delivered to China do not have the TVC nozzle. However, if it is subsequently retrofitted during an engine upgrade, it will turn the J-10 into a super-manoeuvrable fighter.

Salyut also manufactures the AL-31F engines for the Su-27SK, Su-27UBK and Su-30MKK and Su-30MK2 fighters exported to China and for Su-27SKs produced in the country under licence.[/B][/B]
