Difference between Cruise missile and Jet engine

Cruise missile vs. Jet engine

A cruise missile is a guided missile used against terrestrial targets that remains in the atmosphere and flies the major portion of its flight path at approximately constant speed. A jet engine is a type of reaction engine discharging a fast-moving jet that generates thrust by jet propulsion.
