I'm fairly certain combustion happens in the turbine
And you would be wrong. The components are: diffuser, compressor, combustor, turbine, nozzle. It is a Brayton cycle engine. It gets complicated when you add a fan (turbofan) and have low- and high-pressure compressor and turbine stages.
I was using "turbine" as shorthand for "turbine engine", the whole thing hanging off the wing, not just the turbine stage of the unit.
Sorry. Been an aeronautical engineer for 45 years, so am imprinted with the nomenclature.
