Which Engines Does The Airbus A380 Use?

The Airbus A380 is one of the most iconic aircraft ever to be built. Today, the A380 is powered by one of two engines - the Engine Alliance GP7200 and the Rolls-Royce Trent 900. Engine Alliance GP7200The Engine Alliance GP7200 is manufactured by Engine Alliance, which is a joint venture between Pratt & Whitney and General Electric. Engine Alliance later repurposed the GP7000 engine for use on the Airbus A380. - not only does the large and heavy Airbus A380 need engines powerful enough to lift it, stringent noise standards at airports across the world as well as high man maneuverability on the ground were also considered.
