An aerodynamic tail nozzle designed in Nanjing proves its mettle in a high-subsonic speed drone test In a world first, Chinese researchers have flight-tested new streamlined thrust technology in a ...

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 ...

After nearly two decades of focused development, a Chinese research team has finally proven ...

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

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 ...

Nigerian investigators probing a loss of thrust in both engines of a Hawker 900XP have disclosed that one of the powerplants – which had stopped responding to thrust commands – became responsive again ...
