Aerojet Rocketdyne logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- The Aerojet Rocketdyne logo has gone through around ten modifications so far, which is only natural taking into consideration the company’s rather long history.
- 1942 (Aerojet Engineering) While the current company was formed in 2013, the history of its predecessor goes back to 1942.
- While there were no pictorial elements, the very shape of the letters was somehow reminiscent of the dynamism of the rockets and missiles and even echoed their shapes and trajectories.
- 1950s (Aerojet General) The overall style of the type remained the same, and you could even think the design did not change (except for the addition of the word “General,” of course).
- And yet, if you compared the two wordmarks side by side, you would have noticed the shape of the letters slightly changed.
- 1959 This time, by contrast, a more formal typeface was chosen.
- There was not a single trace of the casualness of its predecessor.
- Yet, there was still some dynamism due to the black “trace” the white rhombus “left behind.” This logo contained the writing “A subsidiary of the General Tire & Rubber Company.” 1960 After just a year, the company returned to a casual wordmark looking very much like the one used before 1959.
- This time, they put the writing “Aerojet General Tire General” inside a large red “G.” Both the typefaces used in this version were generic sans serif ones.
- Now, the Aerojet logo featured a comparatively more unique and dynamic type.
- The implied motion appeared due to the white gaps on the “E’s” and “R,” as well as the streamlined shape of some of the letters and their rounded corners.
- 1999 The font grew somewhat heavier, although the red “rocket” bar on the “A” added some dynamism.
- 2013 (current company) The word “Rocketdyne” appeared below the previous wordmark.
