    Environmental efficiency
    By reducing weight and incorporating innovative 3D aerodynamic designs, HF120 components interact with greater efficiency while optimizing operability. The engine uses a centrifugal impeller designed to operate at state-of-the-art aerodynamic efficiency levels without the need for variable geometry. This is complemented by a unique, effusion-cooled combustor design to deliver exceptional environmental benefits.
    • Reduced NOx, CO2, and HC emissions (compared to other certified engines in this class)
    • Noise levels quieter than stage 4 requirements with substantial margin
