The CF6-80 series are high-bypass turbofan engines with a thrust range of 48,000 to 75,000 lb (214 to 334 kN).
The sharing of development resources had allowed for a large reduction in overall development costs which, when including the C-2, were reported as being 345 billion Yen ($3 billion) in 2007. [23] On 30 June 2016, the C-2 airlifter formally entered service with the Japan Air Self-Defense Force. [24] A Kawasaki-built MCH-101
