This paper presents the technical status of a new type aft-turbofan aircraft
powerplant, designated as the General Electric CJ805-21. The successful
development to date of this aft-fan engine has amply demonstrated the
feasibility of a major increase in power rating and a significant improvement in altitude cruise fuel economy by converting the CJ805-3 commercial turbojet to an aft-turbofan engine. The advanced technology, perform-

The mechanical arrangement of the CJ805-21 aftfan component has four major sub-assemblies. They
are (a) front frame, (b) aft-frame, (c) turbine rotor
and (d) thrust reverser. These assemblies are so designed that they can be assembled to the gas generator
by either horizontal or vertical assembly. The aft-fan
component may be assembled to the gas generator as
a complete package or as a sequence of sub-assemblies.
This assembly flexibility enhances flight line maintenance, inspection, and field overhaul.
