Its replacement by a counter-rotating turbine whose rotors rotate respectively at take-off speeds of the order of 3,000 and 7,000 revolutions per minute makes it possible to have a relative speed of 10,000 revolutions per minute (3000 + 7000) while having an absolute speed in a low slice of the aforementioned speed interval.
