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 ...

Fluidic thrust vectoring nozzles represent a promising approach in aerospace propulsion, utilising the controlled injection of secondary flows to manipulate the primary exhaust stream. This innovative ...

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 ...

Lockheed Martin’s “Multi-Axis No-Tail Aircraft”—was a bold idea: skip the vertical and horizontal tails, enlarge the wing, ...

Summary and Key Points: The X-44 MANTA was an experimental aircraft developed by the U.S. Air Force based on the F-22 Raptor, designed without traditional tail surfaces to reduce radar visibility and ...

Key Points and Summary - Conceived in 1999, Lockheed Martin’s X-44 MANTA proposed a tailless, stretched-delta derivative of the F-22 that ditched vertical and horizontal stabilizers. -NASA and the U.S ...

The new stealthy nozzle has been installed on the left engine of the T-50-2 prototype, the same used to test the new AL-51F engine. A Russian Su-57 fighter has been finally equipped with a new ...

No accolade could better describe how exemplary the F-22 Raptor is as a fighter jet than that its production run was quartered because it was peerless in air-to-air combat. The F-22's rectangular ...

With small control surfaces and no thrust vectoring, the F-35 cannot change direction rapidly in close-range engagements. While hyper maneuverability has become a cornerstone of modern fighter jet ...

An EDF (electric duct fan) is a motor that basically functions as a jet engine for RC aircraft. They’re built for speed, but to improve maneuverability (and because it’s super cool) [johnbecker31] ...

FAA regulations require drone enthusiasts and commercial operators to equip their unmanned aircraft with approved remote identification (RID) capability. Following the FAA’s deadline on March 24, 2024 ...

In view of the control effects of fluidic thrust vector technology for low-speed aircraft at high altitude/low density and low altitude/high density are studied. The S-A model of FLUENT software is ...
