Context triple: [FMA IA 63 Pampa, powerplant, Garrett TFE731 turbofan]

A. General Electric F110 turbofan
The General Electric F110 is a high-performance afterburning turbofan engine widely used in modern fighter aircraft, notably various F-16 and F-15 variants, providing increased thrust, reliability, and maintainability over earlier powerplants.
B. Pratt & Whitney TF30 afterburning turbofan
The Pratt & Whitney TF30 afterburning turbofan is a low-bypass military jet engine best known for powering early variants of the F-111 and F-14 Tomcat, providing both high thrust and supersonic capability.
C. Williams FJ44-2 turbofan
The Williams FJ44-2 is a small, high-bypass turbofan engine widely used to power light business jets due to its compact size, fuel efficiency, and reliability.
D. Pratt & Whitney F100 turbofan
The Pratt & Whitney F100 is an afterburning turbofan jet engine widely used in modern U.S. fighter aircraft, known for its high thrust-to-weight ratio and advanced performance.
E. General Electric CF34-10E
The General Electric CF34-10E is a high-bypass turbofan engine developed by GE Aviation to power modern regional jets, particularly optimized for efficiency, reliability, and low emissions.
F. None of above. chosen
G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
