Disclosed herein are high-power hybrid electric jet propulsion systems and methods for creating thrust using electric propulsion and chemical reaction. Embodiments include powering a Stage1 (6) electric machines (6b) through motor controllers for spinning a shaft (5), which spins a fan (2) to draw in air through the engine cowl (1) into Stage1 (6) where it gets compressed and heated. The air is then passed into a cyclonic combustion chamber (7) for mixing with a fuel to create a medium (X1). The medium (X1) is then passed into the turbine blades (8a) in Stage2 (8) to the spin shaft (5). The shaft (5) is configured to produce the high bypass thrust (10) and the jet exhaust thrust (9).
