What type of engine does a B52 have?

The B-52 Stratofortress is a long-range, subsonic, jet-powered strategic bomber. It is powered by eight Pratt & Whitney TF33-P-3 turbofan engines. Each engine produces 17,000 pounds of thrust. The TF33-P-3 is a two-spool, axial-flow turbofan engine. It has a fan, three compressors, a combustor, and four turbines. The fan is driven by the low-pressure turbine. The compressors are driven by the high-pressure turbine. The combustor burns fuel and air to create hot gas. The hot gas expands through the turbines to produce power. The power is used to drive the fan and the compressors. The TF33-P-3 is a very efficient engine. It has a specific fuel consumption of 0.55 pounds of fuel per hour per pound of thrust. This makes the B-52 very economical to operate. The TF33-P-3 is also very reliable. It has a mean time between failures of over 10,000 hours. This means that the B-52 can fly for many hours without having to worry about engine problems.
