Soloviev D-20

The Soloviev D-20P, built by the Soloviev Design Bureau, was a low-bypass turbofan engine rated at 52.9 kN (11,900 lbf) thrust used on the Tupolev Tu-124. A later derivative with increased bypass ratio, the D-20P-125, was developed into the Soloviev D-30 family of low and medium bypass engines.[1]
