As an experimental Su-27 variant, the Su-27LL-PS tested advanced 2D thrust vectoring for enhanced maneuverability, providing critical insights into supermaneuverable flight dynamics, material ...
Fluidic thrust vectoring and control refer to a suite of aerodynamic techniques that achieve directional control of engine thrust by modulating the flow field through the injection of secondary ...
China's J-10 fighter is now equipped with thrust vectoring controls that allow the jet to perform seemingly impossible aerial maneuvers. This long-rumored upgrade to a well-known jet fighter made its ...
Fluidic thrust vectoring for pitch control will be tested next month using a Schübeler Vector II model aircraft, as part of the UK’s £6.2 million ($11.3 million) five-year flapless air vehicle ...
The cover of Aviation Week’s Nov. 14, 1994, issue shows Pratt & Whitney’s XTE-65/2 Joint Technology Demonstrator Engine running with a thrust-vectoring, thrust-reversing spherical convergent flap ...
Air combat simulator studies consistently show large fighter effectiveness payoffs due to thrust vectoring and/or thrust reversing exhaust nozzles. However, the air-to-air missile related kill ratios ...
The Aero Engine Corporation of China displayed an engine with a 2D thrust vectoring nozzle during Airshow China 2022. The nozzle design appears intended to sustain manoeuvres at low speeds and at very ...
