The General Electric GE90 is a family of high-bypass turbofan aircraft engines built by GE Aerospace for the Boeing 777, with thrust ratings from 81,000 to 115,000 pounds-force (360 to 510 kilonewtons).
The Soloviev D-30 (now the Aviadvigatel PS-30) is a Soviet two-shaft low-bypass turbofan engine, officially referred to as a "bypass turbojet" [citation needed].It is one of the most powerful turbofan engines developed in the Soviet Union.
The Pratt & Whitney PW1000G family, also marketed as the Pratt & Whitney GTF (geared turbofan), is a family of high-bypass geared turbofan engines produced by Pratt & Whitney. Following years of development and testing on various demonstrators, the program officially launched in 2008 with the PW1200G destined for the Mitsubishi SpaceJet (a ...
The Kuznetsov NK-25 is a turbofan aircraft engine made by the Soviet Kuznetsov Design Bureau and used in the Tupolev Tu-22M strategic bomber. One of the most powerful supersonic engines in service today, it is rated at 245 kN (55,000 lbf) thrust. The three shaft engine was designed in the years 1972–1974.
In February 2012, GE announced studies on a more efficient derivative of the GE90, calling it the GE9X, to power both the -8 and -9 variants of the new Boeing 777X.It was to feature the same 128 in (325 cm) fan diameter as the GE90-115B with thrust decreased by 15,800 lbf (70 kN) to a new rating of 99,500 lbf (443 kN) per engine.

The Kuznetsov NK-32 is an afterburning three-spool low bypass turbofan jet engine which powers the Tupolev Tu-160 supersonic bomber, and was fitted to the later model Tupolev Tu-144LL supersonic transport. It produces 245 kN (55,000 lb f) of thrust in afterburner.
The Rolls-Royce Trent XWB is a high-bypass turbofan produced by Rolls-Royce Holdings.In July 2006, the Trent XWB was selected to exclusively power the Airbus A350. [2] The first engine was run on 14 June 2010, [3] it first flew on an A380 testbed on 18 February 2012, [4] was certified in early 2013, [5] and first flew on an A350 on 14 June 2013. [6]
The XWB-84 generates up to 84,200 lbf (375 kN) of thrust and the XWB-97 up to 97,000 lbf (431 kN). The engine has a 9.6:1 bypass ratio and a 50:1 pressure ratio. [58] It had its first in-flight shutdown on 11 September 2018, as the fleet accumulated 2.2 million flight hours. [59] It is the most powerful among all Trent engines.
