DRIVEN BY SPEED & POWER
The design of the TF series gas turbines allows simple cantilever mounting from the reduction gear, which results in both the lightest weight installation possible and the most efficient design. With more than 50 years of heritage originating with the Lycoming Engine Company, these durable gas turbines have accumulated hundreds of thousands of hours in military and commercial service around the world.
