What kind of engine is this???

[Johansson]

I found a gas turbine for sale here in Sweden today, the seller thinks it is from a helicopter but have no idea.

A sign on the engine says "MTU6022715", a quick googling can´t tell me anything from that.



Cheers!

Hi Anders

It looks like a MTU (BMW/M.A.N.) 6022 turboshaft (helicopter) engine with the reduction gearbox/starter/generator/pumps missing? (Just Google'd: MTU 6022)

Here are some links:

Similar turbine, MTU 6012

Thanks a lot for the detective work!

He wants a bid on the engine but I don´t think it will sell for much since he has no info at all about it, perhaps it might be worth to throw in a shamelessly low bid just to see how eager he is to get rid of it.
