Abstract
An analysis was conducted on a total of 106,000 turbojet and turbofan engines procured by the United States Air Force to ascertain if an aircraft turbine engine's cost can be effectively correlated to its technical performance. Results indicate that such technical parameters are not valid and other factors such as military situation, economic conditions, and procurement situation should be investigated.
