Le rotor 66 fait partie d'un compresseur à cinq étages de 51 centimètres de diamètre ayant un débit nominal de 29,7 kilogrammes par seconde et un taux de compression de 9,27. Les données de performance obtenues lors de tests ont indiqué que le premier étage n'atteignait pas ses performances de conception.
