A powerplant for an aircraft, comprising a frame, a propulsion system comprising a core enclosed in a casing and comprising a combustion chamber and a turbine, a supply pipe for conveying dihydrogen to the combustion chamber and that snakes outside the casing running along the turbine before dropping down into the combustion chamber through the casing, and a protective cylinder fastened to the frame or to the casing by fastening means and positioned around the casing and between the supply pipe and the turbine. With such an arrangement, if a blade of the turbine became detached it would meet the protective cylinder blocking its path to the dihydrogen pipe and would thus be diverted or stopped.
