  1. Thrust: Maximum take-off thrust is used for reference.
  2. Weight: Dry engine weight without accessories.
  3. Cost: Prices are for new engines and exclude maintenance packages.
  4. Commercial Engines: These engines, like the GE90, Trent XWB, and PW1000G, are used in airliners like the Boeing 777, Airbus A350, and A320neo.
  5. Military Engines: The F414 and RD-33 are examples of engines powering fighter jets like the F/A-18E/F and MiG-29.
