Abstract
An infrared suppressor adapted for use with a gas turbine engine includes a first ring arranged circumferentially around a axis, a second ring arranged circumferentially around the axis, and a strut that extends radially between and interconnects the first ring and the second ring. A portion of the second ring extends radially toward the first ring such that the portion of the second ring cooperates with the first ring to block line-of-sight into the infrared suppressor.
