• Commercial engines are mostly high-bypass turbofans optimized for fuel efficiency and noise reduction.
• Military fighter engines are typically low-bypass afterburning turbofans optimized for thrust-to-weight ratio and supersonic performance.
• Thrust class varies by sub-variant and certification rating.
