No son 176kN son 32000 libras, no es poco, unos 14490 Kg de empuje.:icon_bs:
Busque por muchos lados y fuentes para confirmar, y todas dicen mas o menos lo mismo:
Development tests demonstrated static afterburning thrust performance claimed to be at 39,600 lbf (
176 kN) with 45,000 lbf (
200 kN) a design target.
These figures exceed cited thrust ratings for the US F119 and F135 family engines.
Por cierto 176 kN, equivalen a 17947 Kgf, o a 39566 lbf.
El desarrollo espera alcanzar los 200 kN, 20394 Kgf o 44961 lbf.
Panzz, no te habras confundido la AL-41F, con la Saturn AL-31F 117S (denominada tambien AL-41F1A)?
La 117S, si tira los 142 kN que mencionas (32000 lbf o 14514,955839149965 Kgf), pero no es el motor de las supergrullas.
Perdonen por el idioma, pero no encuentro links en español:
A heavily-upgraded version of the Al-31F is being developed for the Su-35BM prototype and possibly to power the early flights of PAK-FA. This engine has been named the AL-41F1A.
It is important to note that the AL-41F1A is not considered a part of the same AL-41 line as was planned for the Mikoyan Project 1.44 because it uses the core of the AL-31F, whereas the AL-41F utilizes an entirely new core.
The designation appears to be present because the engine approaches the projected specifications of the new AL-41F class. The engine is specified as being able to provide 14.5 tons of thrust. It is also notable that the engine is capable of mounting 3D thrust vectoring nozzles for extra maneuverability.
