The XF3-30 engine has been successfully completed its Qualification Test at March 1986 and the production has started as the powerplant for Japan Self Defence Force's intermedeate trainer T-4. The first flight of the T-4 powered by two XF3-30 engine was made on the 29th July 1985. More than 500 test flights have been made in these two years and engine flight time has accumulated to over 1,500 hours. This SF3-30 engine has been imposed strict requirements of the structural integrity to meet the MIL-E-5007D specification. This paper describes the structural features of this engine and some structural problems encountered through the development. The improvements for these development problems are covered.
