JSF STOVL version is that it carries a perfectly serviceable 2nd engine pointing in the wrong direction (ie. the lift fan) - now that is dumb!
Not sure it is an engine....it is a lift fan driven by the main (single) engine.

I am not aware that we have lost any more single engine aircraft than twins...indeed we may have lost more of the latter.
