    My point was that mechanical sabotage probably wouldn’t have this failure mode without major and obvious impacts to the engine. The engine shroud is generally designed to contain the turbine blades in cases of catastrophic failure.

    For something of this magnitude to happen and survive takeoff stresses, my money is on some type of explosive.

      Oh I didn’t mean sabotage as in “I didn’t QA the abradable shroud installation correctly, oops.”

      I meant like “Nice, this fat brick of C-4 fits perfectly next to the generator compartment.”
