The gas generator section of the GE LM2500 gas turbine engine is composed of all of the following components EXCEPT for which of the following?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option D — Six stage LP turbine

The gas generator section includes the compressor, combustor, and high-pressure turbine. The six-stage low-pressure turbine is part of the power turbine section, which is mechanically independent of the gas generator. Therefore, it is not considered a component of the gas generator assembly in the LM2500 architecture.
