==Manufacturers== {{main|List of turbofan manufacturers}} The turbofan engine market is dominated by [[GE Aerospace|General Electric]], [[Rolls-Royce plc]] and [[Pratt & Whitney]], in order of market share. General Electric and [[Safran Aircraft Engines|Safran]] of France have a joint venture, [[CFM International]]. Pratt & Whitney also have a joint venture, [[International Aero Engines]] with [[Japanese Aero Engine Corporation]] and [[MTU Aero Engines]] of Germany, specializing in engines for the [[Airbus A320 family]]. Pratt & Whitney and General Electric have a joint venture, [[Engine Alliance]] selling a range of engines for aircraft such as the [[Airbus A380]]. For [[airliner]]s and [[cargo aircraft]], the in-service fleet in 2016 is 60,000 engines and should grow to 103,000 in 2035 with 86,500 deliveries according to [[Flight Global]]. A majority will be medium-thrust engines for [[narrow-body aircraft]] with 54,000 deliveries, for a fleet growing from 28,500 to 61,000. High-thrust engines for [[wide-body aircraft]], worth 40β45% of the market by value, will grow from 12,700 engines to over 21,000 with 18,500 deliveries. The [[regional jet]] engines below 20,000 lb (89 kN) fleet will grow from 7,500 to 9,000 and the fleet of [[turboprop]]s for airliners will increase from 9,400 to 10,200. The manufacturers [[market share]] should be led by CFM with 44% followed by Pratt & Whitney with 29% and then Rolls-Royce and General Electric with 10% each.<ref>{{cite news |url= https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/insight-from-flightglobal-flight-fleet-forecasts-e-430071/ |title= Flight Fleet Forecast's engine outlook |work= Flight Global |date= 2 November 2016 }}</ref> === Commercial turbofans in production === {| class="wikitable sortable" |+ Commercial turbofans in production<ref>{{cite book |title= Jane's All the World's Aircraft |issn= 0075-3017 |date=2005 |pages= 850β853}}</ref> !
