Abstract
An aircraft engine assembly has a front engine mount connecting an engine and a primary structure of a pylon comprising at least one front rod having at least three front link points. A first front link point is configured to connect the front rod and the front end of the primary structure. A second front link point is configured to connect the front rod and the core of the engine. A third front link point is configured to connect the front rod and the engine core and is offset relative to the second front link point in a horizontal transverse direction. The first front link point of the front engine mount is separated from the rotation axis of the engine by a distance greater than an exterior radius of the rear casing of the core of the engine at the rear link point of the rear engine mount.
