Thrust-vectoring makes impossible maneuvers possible. The huge, powerful jets can perform extremely tight turns that ...

Thrust vectoring—essentially redirecting the plane’s exhaust flow—allows modern fighters to quickly change direction, giving them an edge in close combat. Thrust vectoring nozzles are one of the most ...

There are lots of acronyms for electric aviation, but eVTOL has stood the test of time for 15 years. In August 2014, NASA unveiled its GL-10 "Greased Lightning" vectored-thrust eVTOL demonstrator with ...

The Vickers Swallow was a British supersonic aircraft concept designed as both a nuclear bomber and a future passenger ...

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 ...

Helicopter-like drones are extremely nimble, but their fixed-wing counterparts aren't so lucky. Chinese researchers have a way to bring some of that agility to conventional airplane designs, though.

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 ...

Innovative Flight-Ready Kit Enables Single-Axis Vectoring of Aircraft Propellers to Advance Aerial Vehicle Research and Development REDONDO BEACH, CA, UNITED STATES ...

The number of published eVTOL aircraft concepts has continued to grow over the past seven years. Over the past several years, the number of electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft ...
