This engine has had parts of it cut away to show the inner workings.

How a turbojet engine works in three easy steps:

The first few fans spin and suck in air, and fans further inside the engine then compress it. This compressed air is then mixed with fuel and ignited, and the resulting exhaust goes out the back of the engine to produce thrust.
