A 3-dimensional minimum time turn optimal control problem was used as a framework for a preliminary investigation of the effects of thrust vectoring. Two basic configurations were used for aircraft in the study. They were the same except that one has the thrust vector fixed along the longitudinal axis, and the thrust vector for the other is free to move in the aircraft vertical plane. The effect of initial velocity, weight penalty and thrust-to-weight ratio were investigated. The results show a definite advantage for the thrust vectored aircraft for most of the conditions investigated and the possibility of an advantage for the others. Therefore, more detailed analysis of the effect of thrust vectoring on combat maneuverability is justified. (Author)
