Care to share?

CFM International is a joint venture between SAFRAN Aircraft Engines of France and GE Aerospace in the US.  The RISE engine demonstrator is an open fan solution connected via a gear to a traditional turbine engine.

The exact design is not yet set, and many internal and external technologies remain secret. The key metrics that are known, though, are that the RISE engine will deliver better than 20% lower fuel burn than today’s aero engines.
