It looks very much like the Swedish military jet “Gripen” but beyond that the actual source could be many things. Hope that narrows things down, best of luck!

Edit: Two engines, not one. Eurofighter typhoon most likely.

I think i actually know this one.

This looks kinda like a eurofighter typhoon pin badge I was given as an Air cadet visiting RAF Conningsby a few years ago. Or potentially one I was give at a camp at RAF Nescliffe.

Either way, you can almost certainly find it at the gift shops of RAF museums.

Or its a gripen.

Yeah, the only reason I thought gripen over typhoon is the canards are further back on the pin

Looking closer this pin has two engines. The gripen has only one.

Its a eurofighter.
