A baseline supersonic STOVL ejector aircraft, its propulsion and typical operating modes is described, and important propulsion parameters are identified. Then a number of propulsion system changes are evaluated for improvement of the lift-off performance aft deflection of the ejector jet and heating of the ejector primary air either by burning or using the hot engine core flow. The possibility for cooling the footprint is illustrated for mixing or interchanging the fan and core flows, and in use of a core flow ejector. The application of a new engine concept the turbine bypass engine plus a turbocompressor to supply the ejector primary air, and thrust during takeoff combat are presented.
