The F-14 Tomcat, an iconic US Navy fighter popularized by Top Gun, could have evolved into an even deadlier “Super Tomcat” ...

The aircraft will also be equipped with European weaponry, such as the Meteor BVRAAM (Beyond Visual Range Air-to-Air Missile), IRIS-T (InfraRed Imaging System Tail-Thrust Vector Controlled ...

In 1994, the X-31 demonstrator was fitted with what German program managers called a “poor man’s thrust vectoring nozzle”—three paddle-like vanes that pushed into the exhaust stream—and ...

Abstract: This paper addresses the trajectory tracking problem for VTOL UAVs in which the thrust vector can be delivered only in a fixed direction with respect to the aircraft frame. The proposed ...

and today’s torque-vectoring traction control systems are sure to keep the new FWD VW GTI under control. In fact, such a system was alluded to back in 2023, when the ID.GTI concept based on the ID.

These flex nozzles, constructed from layered elastomeric materials, enable precise thrust vector control without complex hydraulic actuators. A malfunction could result in thrust misalignment, causing ...

Flex nozzles, made of layered elastomeric materials, allow precise thrust vector control without complex hydraulic actuators. A failure here could cause thrust misalignment, leading to rapid ...

The MICA’s agility is enhanced by its thrust-vectoring motor and its fire-and-forget capability allows pilots to engage multiple targets simultaneously without the need for continuous guidance. India ...

The aircraft also features four tiltrotors. “The powerful thing about our tiltrotors is the ability to thrust vector our propulsion forces,” French said. “So instead of like a quad copter ...

As the next phase of Test cricket begins for India, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has some big shoes to fill. The likes of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin are ...

Indeed, some J-10 variants are even equipped with a thrust-vectoring engine nozzle to further enhance the aircraft’s maneuverability. In sum, the J-10 appears to be a capable fourth-generation ...
