Directions for designs and powerplant configurations for V/STOL aircraft are explored. The Harrier is the only V/STOL aircraft in service, having performed for over 12 yr. Rolls-Royce has studied engines with powered lift separation from forward propulsion, and engines with composite lift/propulsion modes, resulting in concentration on vectored thrust using rotating or deflected nozzles. The necessity for higher combat performance creates a need for higher specific thrust for supersonic flight (Mach 2), which is achievable with plenum chamber burning. The core flows are exhausted through separate nozzle systems for independent control. Intake in a V/STOL follows a short path and results in nonuniform flow, and testing is described to account for the effects of nonuniform static pressures and temperatures.
