CFM56 Commercial Aviation Engine
High-bypass turbofan — joint development by GE Aviation and Safran Aircraft Engines.
About the CFM56
High-bypass turbofan jointly developed by GE Aviation and Safran Aircraft Engines. Powers the Boeing 737 Classic, 737NG, the Airbus A320ceo family, and the KC-135 Stratotanker.
The CFM56 family powers the workhorse commercial fleets in service today: Boeing 737 Classic and 737NG, the Airbus A320ceo family (A318/A319/A320/A321ceo), and the U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker. CFM International is a 50/50 joint venture between GE Aviation and Safran Aircraft Engines, and the CFM56 has logged more flight hours than any other commercial turbofan in history.
Variants Supported
AMP supports operators of all three high-volume CFM56 variants. The CFM56-3 powers the Boeing 737 Classic (737-300/-400/-500). The CFM56-5B powers the Airbus A318, A319, A320, and A321ceo. The CFM56-7B powers the Boeing 737NG (737-600 through -900ER).
How AMP Supports CFM56 Operators
Our CFM56 program is in active build-out: we are populating inventory, qualifying repair vendors, and onboarding MRO partners across our managed-overhaul network. The shape of the program will mirror what we already do for the LM-family aeroderivatives — same ASA-100 documentation, same condition-coded inventory, same 1–4 hours RFQ response.
LEAP-1A and LEAP-1B (the 737 MAX and A320neo successor) support is on the roadmap and coming soon.
