This cool vintage pin depicts the front view of the IAE V2500 turbofan engine. Detailed fan blades, central spinner, and "V2500" lettering – a rare promotional or employee item from International Aero Engines (consortium of Pratt & Whitney, Rolls-Royce, MTU, and JAEC).
The V2500 was used for Airbus A320 family jets, the McDonnell Douglas MD-90, and the Embraer C-390 Millennium military transport. Known for its reliability and efficiency in the 22,000–33,000 lb thrust range, it features advanced tech like wide-chord fan blades and Full Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC) for lower emissions and fuel burn, with a strong global support network for maintenance.
Perfect for aviation enthusiasts, pilots, mechanics, or collectors of airline/engine memorabilia. Hard to find – these were never sold retail.
I have several available.
