Tailored to the regional market

PowerJet‘s SaM146 engine is designed from the ground up for cost-effective operation in commercial service. It will help airlines keep pace with evolving market demand by combining high reliability, low cost-of-ownership, a complete range of support and services, environmental friendliness and commonality across an entire family of aircraft.

The SaM146 was specifically designed to meet the needs of regional aircraft manufacturers and operators. Developing 13,500 to 17,500 pounds of thrust, it covers the power requirements for aircraft carrying 70 to 120 passengers.

A single engine for a family of regional aircraft.

Operators can adjust the SaM146 thrust level by simply replacing a plug in the control system and changing the nameplate. This engine commonality for a family of regional aircraft means reduced cost of ownership, with savings in terms of spare parts, tools, mechanic and pilot training, and of course spare engine inventories.
