The A340-313X has an increased MTOW of up to 275 tonnes (606,000 lb) and is powered by the more powerful 34,000 lbf (150 kN) thrust CFMI CFM56-5C4 engines. Typical range with 295 passengers is between 7,200 to 7,400 nautical miles (13,300 to 13,700 km). The largest operator of this type is Lufthansa, who has operated a fleet of 30 aircraft. The A340-300 Enhanced is the latest version of this model and was first delivered to South African Airways in 2003, with Air Mauritius receiving the A340-300 Enhanced into its fleet in 2006. It received newer CFM56-5C4/P engines and improved avionics and fly-by-wire systems developed for the A340-500 and -600. | The A340-313X has an increased MTOW of up to 275 tonnes (606,000 lb) and is powered by the more powerful 34,000 lbf (150 kN) thrust CFMI CFM56-5C4 engines.

In FlightGear, the A340-313X project was started to avoid conflict with the "standard" A340-300, and is a continuation of the [[A340-600HGW]]. The project is based on Skyop and Ampere's A340-300 model, using many systems adapted from the 777. Some parts are also taken from the [[A320]], the [[A380]] and the [[747]]. The project started in August 2013 by Andino, and in September 2015 received a new cockpit, using many parts from the [[Airbus A330|A330]]. You can follow its development at [http://andinogonthaeler.wordpress.com/ Andino's Hangar] and on the [http://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=20646 forum topic]. | In FlightGear, the A340-313X project was started to avoid conflict with the "standard" A340-300, and is a continuation of the [[A340-600HGW]].
