how much energy do you think a jet emits?

Mega joules not watts.

It may emit a kilowatt of power. Or many kilowatts. The misuse of energy when power was meant suggests other inaccuracies.

Thank you, this is exactly what I was implying
Depends on the throttle. 0 to afterburn.
probably more than tens of kW
