The Guizhou WS-19 ({{lang-zh|涡扇-19}}), code name Huangshan, is an afterburner turbofan engine designed by the Guizhou Aeroengine Design
Institute. It has a reported thrust-to-weight ratio of 10 and a thrust of 10 metric tons or 22,000 lbs.{{Cite web |url=https://newtalk.tw/news/view/2023-02-09/856756 |title=中國渦輪-19發動機進度提前！ 航發總師曝 : 未來殲-35會比殲-20更早換裝|author=曾品潔 |date=2023-02-09 |publisher=Newtalk新闻 |language=zh-hant |accessdate=2023-02-26 }}{{cite book |last1=Wood |first1=Peter |last2=Wahlstrom |first2=Alden |last3=Cliff |first3=Roger |date=March 2020 |title=China's Aeroengine Industry |url=https://airuniversity.af.edu/Portals/10/CASI/documents/Research/Infrastructure/2020-04-15%20CASI_Aeroengines.pdf |publisher=United States Air Force Air University China Aerospace Studies Institute |page=31 |isbn=9798637786664}}
The WS-19 fits in the same footprint as the earlier Guizhou WS-13, but is of an entirely new design that incorporates the same technology as found on the Xian WS-15. The WS-19 is intended for the production versions of the Shenyang FC-31 medium-size stealth fighter such as the Shenyang J-35.{{cite web|url=https://www.flightglobal.com/defence/chinese-executive-hints-at-progress-with-j-20s-new-ws-15-engine/152627.article |title=Chinese executive hints at progress with J-20's new WS-15 engine |website=Flightglobal |date=27 March 2023 |first=Greg|last=Waldron }}
