The National Interest on MSNWhat Is an Aircraft’s “Thrust-to-Weight Ratio,” and Why Does It Matter?
An aircraft’s thrust-to-weight ratio is a statistic that is often thrown around, but one that is poorly understood, even ...
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 ...
Russia has engines with thrust vectoring for its most recent non-stealth fighters but has not been able to perfect a more powerful engine with that feature for the stealthy Su-57. If China gets there ...
It’s alleged that over-reliance on thrust-vectoring led to the defeat of Indian Air Force Su-30MKI fighters which dueled American F-15C jets in a Red Flag exercise in 2008.
Russia’s Sukhoi Design Bureau is reportedly developing a new fighter jet. The single-engine fighter would be in the same size class as the American F-16.
Thrust vectoring is the ability of an aircraft to alter the direction of its engine thrust. This allows the aircraft to perform more aggressive maneuvers, pull tighter turns, and change direction ...
The Harrier Jump Jet's development began in the 1960s with aeronautical engineers Ralph Hooper and John William Fozard among those at the project's helm.
The F-35B uses the engine’s 600 model, which has a thrust vectoring nozzle that allows the flow of energy to be directed downward so the plane can hover and take off and land vertically.
