Results of study of propulsion system/control system interface for several V/STOL hover control concepts in aircraft using lift plus lift-cruise propulsion concept; control concepts included are proportional reaction controls using lift engine compressor bleed air, engine thrust modulation, and engine thrust vectoring; effects on control system performance of reaction control thrust augmentation by duct burning are shown; concepts are applied to three subsonic V/STOL strike-reconnaissance fighter aircraft of different gross weights, and comparison of concepts on basis of bleed air requirements, thrust-to-weight ratio penalties, and lift engine operating limitations is made.
