Operational history

Variants

T330

The T330 base model was the first variant to enter production, and is the standard basis for other variants. It uses two Tyr VF-45S geared turbofan engines and is capable of transporting 120 passengers for a distance of 5,000 kilometers in a standard airliner configuration.

T330P

The T330P is an extensive modification of the standard T330 to satisfy Pelinese civil aviation regulations concerning safety standards for airliners flying routes considered to be of elevated risk. Its primary differences from the original aircraft configuration are a reduced standard passenger capacity of 106 seats and the installation of an Aetherdyne Mirror airliner defensive aids sub-system, including flare and chaff dispensers, a missile approach warning system, a radar warning receiver, towed radar decoys, a DIRCM array, and a basic integrated ECM system. It can be visually distinguished from its standard counterpart by the reduced number of windows along its sides, as well as the presence of electronics fairings, countermeasure dispensers, and other externally visible components of its missile defense system.
