Development work on the WK-1A engine (produced in Poland as the Lis-2) led to the creation of another engine variant — the WK‑1F. It was equipped with an afterburner with a two-position adjustable nozzle.
When at the end of 1955 production of the MiG‑17F aircraft began in Poland under the designation Lim‑5, the licence documentation for the WK‑1F engine was also supplied. It was produced at WSK-Rzeszow under the designation Lis‑5 (licence engine 5) until 1984.
Lis‑5 engines were used in the Lim‑5 (MiG‑17F), Lim‑5P (MiG‑17PF), Lim‑6M, and Lim‑6bis aircraft.
