That's easy

HF120 turbofan

The HF120 turbofan is the first engine to be produced by GE Honda Aero Engines. Developed from the Honda HF118, the HF120 is currently undergoing an extensive testing program, with formal certification testing scheduled to begin in late 2008.[1] The engine has a wide-chord swept fan, two-stage low-pressure compressor and counter rotating high-pressure compressor based on a titanium impeller.[2] Evolved from Honda's HF118, the engine demonstrates a 2,050 lbf takeoff thrust. Honda decided to go with an unusual over-the-wing podded engine configuration. This feature was developed on the innovative Vereinigte Flugtechnische Werke VFW-614 decades earlier. It allows for more space within the fuselage and reduces drag at high speeds.

 

Fun fact: did you know that plane was designed in 1987 by the Mississippi State University and was purchased by Honda in 1991?
