An aircraft’s thrust-to-weight ratio is a statistic that is often thrown around, but one that is poorly understood, even ...

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 ...

There are other aircraft that use thrust vectoring on a non-tilting propulsion system for VTOL purposes. The Lockheed Martin F-35B fighter jet is one example, although it does have the ...

Thrust vectoring is when an airplane changes the direction of an engines output. So, instead of letting a jet engine push a plane forward, thrust vectoring could move it across different directions.

Thanks to thrust vectoring and supermaneuverability, these jets can nail tricks most planes could never even dream of.

MiG is trying to persuade the Russian air force and others of the combat utility of thrust-vector control, now being flown on a MiG-29 Fulcrum development aircraft. The Russian manufacturer is ...

The J-10 fighter plane gets thrust vector control, a technology that allows for wild acrobatic aerial maneuvers.

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

Textron Systems unveiled its X5-55 vertical take-off and landing engineering testbed at the AUVSI Xponential show in Denver, Colorado, on 1 May. The company developed the aircraft to meet demands ...
