The IAE V2500 is a two-shaft high-bypass turbofan engine built by International Aero Engines (IAE) which powers the Airbus A320 family, the McDonnell Douglas MD-90, and the Embraer C-390 Millennium.[2]
The engine's name is a combination of the Roman numeral V, symbolizing the five original members of the International Aero Engines consortium, which was formed in 1983 to produce the V2500 engine. The 2500 represents the 25,000-pound-force (110 kN) produced by the original engine model, the V2500-A1. FAA type certification for the V2500 was granted in 1988.
The maintenance, repair, and operations market for the V2500 is close to US$3 billion as of 2015.[3]
