What does these two paragraphs mean? do they mean 'core' when they say turbojet? 20,000 lbs? im so confused.
AT NEARLY 13 feet in diameter, the GE9X is the largest jet engine ever built. It is wider than the fuselage of a Boeing 737. Or, as the publicists at General Electric put it, if Kobe sat on Shaq’s shoulders, the two of them could easily walk through it.
Like we said. It is a really big engine.
The 20,000-pound turbojet that GE is testing at its proving ground in Ohio draws air faster, at greater volume, and with superior efficiency than the former top dog, the GE90-115B. A pair of them could suck all of the air out of a space the size of Yankee Stadium in 13 minutes flat.
