Rolls-Royce AE 3007
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The AE 3007 is a turbofan engine produced by Rolls-Royce.
The engine provides up to 8,917 lbf (40 kN) of thrust. It consists of a fan, 14-stage high pressure compressor, 2-stage high pressure turbine and 3-stage low pressure turbine. It shares a common core with the AE 1107C-Liberty and AE 2100.
The AE 3007 is used in the Embraer ERJ 135, ERJ 140, ERJ 145 and Legacy, as well as the Cessna Citation X. Military applications include the Northrop Grumman RQ-4 Global Hawk unmanned aerial vehicle and the Embraer R-99A, R-99B and P-99 aircraft.
