I was wondering whether having a quad tiltrotor would allow for the use of turbofan engine rather than turbo prop. I read on another question that the v22 uses turbo prop as it is easier to balance but if there were 4 turbofans then it could surely balance and with the engines closer. Could a turbofan tilt rotor be possible for supersonics speeds and vtol? And would tilt rotor or tilt wing be better in this application? Also wouldn't turbo fan mean they're isn't the stream to worry about between sets of motors?
