An assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a first casing, a second casing, and struts extending from the first casing to support the second casing. The assembly further includes a fairing and a multi-piece heat shield assembly. The fairing is disposed between the first casing and the second casing and around each of the struts. The multi-piece heat shield assembly includes a first shield extending between the first casing and the fairing, and a second shield extending between the fairing and the first casing. The multi-piece heat shield assembly further includes a third shield extending between the fairing and the second casing, and fourth and fifth heat shields extending from the third heat shield between the fairing and each of the struts.

Multi-piece heat shield

An augmentor vane assembly of a gas turbine engine with an additively manufactured augmentor vane, the additively manufactured augmentor vane having a vane wall with integral longitudinal wall passages formed therein, at least one of the integral longitudinal wall passages including at least one entrance aperture and at least one exit aperture, the at least one exit aperture transverse to the integral longitudinal wall passage.
