How much does a plane engine cost?
Multi-Million Dollar Cost: A single high-performance jet engine can cost $10–30 million, depending on the model and specifications. Each engine carries a list price of roughly $25 million to $30 million. Because the 747 uses four engines, a full set can exceed $100 million, making the engines one of the most expensive components of the aircraft.Each engine costs $25 million, packs over 18,000 precision-engineered parts, and spins at 10,000 rpm to generate more than 70,000 pounds of thrust—enough to launch the world’s largest passenger aircraft into the sky.
