the RNP to 13L/R already exists after being tested as RNAV Visual 13L by JetBlue extensively.
(http://fsims.faa.gov/wdocs/oswg/kjfk...0rwy%2013l.pdf - since end of testing NOTAMed out of service)

this honeywell pdf is one of the only documents describing the procedure on page 23:
https://www.mygdc.com/assets/public_..._Conf_2013.pdf

RNP 0.3 with DA of 519' though i ofc can't be sure this is the approved version.

what i am sure of is that as of 2017 not only jetblue but also delta, american airlines and cathay pacific is using the RNP to 13L. (jetblue aircraft don't even have to request it, they are told to expect it on initial contact with the tracon. the other airlines not all aircraft request it but a reasonable percentage)

nonetheless you are of course correct 13R has no ILS and no appropriate approach lights.
just wanted to line out the reasons why there is no ILS to 13R by explaining what would be necessary
