Woshan WS-6

The Woshan WS-6 was an unsuccessful turbofan development program from the People's Republic of China. [1]

Development started as part of the "Aviation Industry Science and Technology Development Program for 1978-1985" with the larger goal of developing an industry capable of designing and building aircraft engines. No workable engines were produced when the program was cancelled in 1986.[1]

Experience from the WS-6 was applied to the later Shenyang WS-10.[2]
