General Electric CF34-8E5
General Electric CF34-8E5 exact turbofan variant in the CF34-8 series. EASA rates normal five-minute takeoff thrust at 59.70 kN (13,420 lbf), maximum takeoff thrust at 64.54 kN (14,510 lbf), and maximum continuous thrust at 60.14 kN (13,520 lbf). GE identifies the CF34-8E as the Embraer E170/E175 powerplant and records April 2004 entry into service on the Embraer 170; the existing E170 and E175 family relationships remain separate from this propulsion identity.
