Four TT1 Fan X40s power the TC-8, each one provides 431 kN of thrust, helping the TC-8 reach a maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) of 385,000 kilograms. These engines also have inbuilt thrust reversers, allowing the aircraft to takeoff entirely by itself.

It also has a large cargo hold that can hold 20 463L pallets. It has the ability to transport 3 Talamainor-1S Main Battle Tanks, 4 Brídairnéis-1S Infantry Fighting Vehicles and 8 APCs. The TC-8s payload differs depending on how full its fuel tanks are, at full capacity its payload is 220,000 kilograms, which is more than enough to satisfy most needs of the cargo space. To reach an 1,800 m takeoff distance with half-full tanks, the maximum payload would be 65,000 kilograms, enough to accommodate 1 Talamainor-1S Main Battle Tank.
