The Honeywell HTF7000 is a turbofan engine produced by Honeywell Aerospace. Rated in the 6,540–7,624 pounds-force (29.09–33.91 kN) range, the HTF7000 is used on the Bombardier Challenger 300/350, Gulfstream G280 and Embraer Legacy 500/450 and is planned for the new Cessna Citation Longitude.

The engine was originally designated the AS907 which was changed in 2004 to HTF7000, the AS907 designation is still used for legal and regulatory use.[3]

In October 2016, 2.6 million hr have been logged by 1,400 in service engines and it has a 99.9% dispatch reliability rate, Borescope inspections extends time between overhaul and some engines have remained installed for up to 10,000 hr. Average fuel consumption is about 950 lb. per hour for a 7,765 lbf engine on a G280, to be compared to 875 lb. per hour for a 4,420 lbf TFE731 on a G150. Its architecture could be extended for a range of 8,000 to 10,000 lbf thrust.[2]

Variants

HTF7000 / AS907
6,826 lbf (30.36 kN) original variant of the engine. Developed for the Bombardier Challenger 300.
