Results for tag: "Thrust Vector"

Thrust vectoring is a technology used in aircraft parts to control the direction of thrust produced by an engine. It is used to control the attitude of the aircraft, allowing it to maneuver in a variety of ways. The technology is used in both military and civilian aircraft, and is becoming increasingly popular as aircraft become more sophisticated. Thrust vectoring is achieved by redirecting the exhaust of the engine, either by using movable nozzles or by deflecting the exhaust with vanes. This allows the aircraft to control its attitude and direction without having to rely on traditional control surfaces such as ailerons and elevators. The thrust vector market is a growing industry, with many companies offering a variety of products and services. Companies such as Pratt & Whitney, Rolls-Royce, and GE Aviation are all major players in the market, offering a range of thrust vectoring systems for both military and civilian aircraft. Other companies such as Honeywell, Safran, and MTU Aero Engines also offer thrust vectoring systems for a variety of aircraft. Show Less Read more
