EUROJET EJ200
EUROJET EJ200 is a two-shaft afterburning turbofan developed by an international European consortium of MTU Aero Engines, Rolls-Royce, Avio Aero, and ITP Aero for the Eurofighter Typhoon. MTU's technical brochure reports 13,500 lbf (60.05 kN) maximum thrust without afterburner, 20,000 lbf (88.96 kN) maximum thrust with afterburner, a 26:1 overall pressure ratio, and a 0.4:1 bypass ratio. The engine entered service in 2013 and remains in production; exact aircraft installations and later upgrade variants remain separate.
