Civil WJ-10 [verification needed ]
The AEP500's 5,000 kW (6,700 hp) equivalent power is similar to the Dash 8 Q400's 4,600 kW Pratt & Whitney Canada PW150 , to propel a 74-100 seats airliner at Mach 0.6 and FL300-330.
It has a three-shaft layout for compactness and performance retention, the low-pressure compressor has four axial stages while the high-pressure compressor has one axial and one centrifugal stage, both driven by single stages turbines.
A demonstrator without the three stage power turbine should be run in 2022/2023, a technology demonstrator in 2025, and certification is targeted for 2035
Takeoff BSFC should be below 260 g/kWh (0.43 lb/(hp⋅h)).
The 5,000-kW WJ-10 was intended for the Y-19 airlifter and may be introduced in the 2020s. A 5,000-kW engine could power a 110 t (240,000 lb) MTOW airlifter but more for higher performance like the Airbus A400M .[4]

U.S. sanctions [ edit ]
In November 2020, U.S. President Donald Trump issued an executive order prohibiting U.S. companies and individuals owning shares in companies that the United States Department of Defense believe have links to the People's Liberation Army .[7] [8] [9] The list produced by the United States Department of Defense as being linked to the People's Liberation Army includes AECC.[10]
