Military Plane Engines
Do they send out pings?

No, thrust.
That ping thing, ACARS is for monitoring....banks or trusts own commercial A/C engines and lease them to the airlines.....airlines monitor engine parameters plus they cost a bunch.....and why they monitor them. |

I don't thrust you dude
But seriously. We sell some craft, to 'someone' as we do... |

Its on the side of the engine and usually in the cockpit. Extreme interest in what goes on with their millions of dollar engines and airframes.....plus, I'm sure their are insurance issues. |

This article explains how the engine monitoring satellite systems work:

Once again, I think Gault has missed the concept of the OP. But that's OK, keep trying
Back to the OP. If 'we' sell a craft to 'them' for military purposes that 'checks in' ... regardless of ownership/title/whateva. Wouldn't that be handy in the age of information |

Did you see the articles about vendoring out military electronics assembly to the Chinese? |

Rolls Royce does that?

Rolls Royce mostly leases their engines, rather than selling them. That's why they maintain satellite link engine monitoring even if the customer does not. I expect that the other engine manufacturers have similar engine telemetry.

Once again, thanks for stopping by with useless information unrelated to the concept of the OP. Please get back to us - only - after you acquire a clue. Don't care how that happens.
