The F-16C/D Block 30/32s were the first to be built with the common engine bay, able to accept the existing F100-200/220 engine (Block 32) or the F110-100 (Block 30). A non-afterburning variant, the F100-PW-220U powers the Northrop Grumman X-47B UCAV. The -100 and -200 series engines could be upgraded to become equivalent to -220 specifications ...

F-35A weighs 13.3t,and max thrust of F135 is 19.5t. The thrust-to-weight ratio of Al-41 is 8.8 and that of F135 is just 6.7 under the current entries. But the thrust-to-weight ratio of Su-35 is JUST 2×14÷19≈1.47，and that of F-35A is 1×19.5÷13.3≈1.47. This may be caused by the difference in engine weight standards between the two sides.
Diagram of a typical gas turbine jet engine. Air is compressed by the compressor blades as it enters the engine, and it is mixed and burned with fuel in the combustion section. The hot exhaust gases provide forward thrust and turn the turbines which drive the compressor blades. 1. Intake 2. Low pressure compression 3. High pressure compression ...
