Marotta’s TVC system offers advanced control by gimbaling the rocket motor’s nozzle, enhancing the missile’s navigation and precision. This actuator-driven design ensures precise trajectory ...

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 ...

The X-44 MANTA was a “radical” 1990s Lockheed Martin concept for a “tailless F-22,” which would have used 3D thrust vectoring ...

ZHUHAI, China—An AVIC-owned J-10B testbed demonstrated in a Nov. 6 flying display showed China’s new mastery of extreme aerial maneuverability aided by an experimental thrust vectoring control system.

Key Points and Summary - In the late 1990s, the U.S. Air Force, NASA, and Lockheed Martin studied the X-44 MANTA—a tailless, delta-winged concept that utilized multi-axis thrust vectoring instead of ...

There’s a good chance you already saw SpaceX’s towering Starship prototype make its impressive twelve kilometer test flight. While the attempt ended with a spectacular fireball, it was still a ...

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 ...

Historically, the thrust-to-weight ratio concept has served as a benchmark for the evolution of fighter jets. An aircraft’s thrust-to-weight ratio is a statistic that is often thrown around, but one ...

Blade pitch control is handled by a central hub that works a bit like the swashplate in a helicopter; when it's moved off-axis, it changes the pitch of all blades as the barrel rotates, such that the ...
