I don’t see how a purely electric aircraft could ever beat synthetic jet fuel made with electricity.
If this is a hybrid, I am curious where they are stealing energy from.

Well, what’s the efficiency of synthetic jet fuel production?
Is it still competitive?
Can we realistically get lots of it, like ever?
It beats it by mostly not using the turbines. The turbines are there for long range diversions which should happen rarely enough to not really matter in terms of carbon release.
