A
Correct answer
Explanation
Modern commercial and military aircraft primarily use gas turbine engines, including turbofans, turbojets, turboprops, and turboshafts. Gas turbines offer superior power-to-weight ratio, fuel efficiency at high altitudes, and reliability compared to piston engines. Piston engines are largely confined to small general aviation aircraft today.
