fan-jet
A fan-jet is a type of aircraft engine design, also known as a turbofan engine, in which a large fan driven by a turbine pushes air rearward from the front of the engine. This design allows for increased thrust and fuel efficiency in comparison to other jet engine types. The fan-jet presents a mix of jet propulsion and propeller propulsion as a fraction of the incoming air is bypassed around the combustion chamber, being then accelerated by the fan and expelled to contribute to the thrust.
