F122
| Williams F122 | |
|---|---|
| Type | Turbofan |
| National origin | United States |
| Manufacturer | Williams International |
| Major applications | KEPD 350 |
| Number built | 699 (as of August 2014) |
| Developed from | Williams F107 |
| Variants | Williams F415 |
The Williams International F122 is a twin-shaft, axial-centrifugal-flow turbofan that is similar to the F107 in configuration but has a maximum thrust of 900 lbf (3.33 to 4.0 kN).
Design and development
The F122 is used to power the KEPD 350 air-launched cruise missile, and was the powerplant for the cancelled AGM-137 TSSAM air-launched cruise missile.[2] Although the AGM-137 was cancelled, the F122 was first used for the Taurus KEPD when it was flown aboard that missile in April 2002.
