Airfoil for gas turbine engines are described. The airfoils have internal walls and internal cavities. A leading edge cavity is defined within the airfoil body along a leading edge and a leading edge feed cavity is arranged aft of the leading edge cavity. A bent leading edge rib is arranged between the leading edge cavity and the leading edge feed cavity. A main body cavity is arranged aft of the leading edge feed cavity and defined at least in part by two interior ribs that define a part of the leading edge feed cavity. The main body cavity is fluidly connected to the leading edge feed cavity by an interior fluid connection through the intersection of the two interior ribs. A shield cavity is arranged to thermally shield the leading edge feed cavity from heat pickup along the suction side of the airfoil body.
