Presentation of Most Famous Turbofan Engine on World - CFM 56

The CFM International CFM56 (U.S. military designation F108) series is a family of high-bypass turbofan aircraft engines made by CFM International (CFMI), with a thrust range of 18,000 to 34,000 pounds-force (80 to 150 kilonewtons). CFMI is a 50--50 joint-owned company of SNECMA, France and GE Aviation (GE), USA. Both companies are responsible for producing components and each has its own final assembly line. GE produces the high-pressure compressor, combustor, and high-pressure turbine, and SNECMA manufactures the fan, low-pressure turbine, gearbox, and exhaust. The engines are assembled by GE in Evendale, Ohio, and by SNECMA in Villaroche, France. The completed engines are marketed by CFMI.
The CFM56 first ran in 1974[1] and, despite initial political problems, is now one of the most common turbofan aircraft engines in the world, with more than 20,000 having been built[2] in four major variants. It is most widely used on the Boeing 737 airliner and, under military designation F108, replaced the Pratt & Whitney JT3D engines on many KC-135 Stratotankers in the 1980s, creating the KC-135R variant of this aircraft. It is also the only engine (CFM56-5C) used to power the Airbus A340-200 and 300 series. The engine is also fitted to Airbus A320 series aircraft.

This engines are using with:
- Airbus A320 family
- Airbus A340
- Boeing 707-700 (prototype only)
- Boeing 737 AEW&C
- Boeing 737 Classic
- Boeing 737 Next Generation
- Boeing Business Jet
- Boeing C-40 Clipper (VIP version for USAF)
- Boeing KC-135R Stratotanker
- Boeing P-8 Poseidon
- Boeing RC-135
