This paper presents results from flight testing an F-16 aircraft modified with the Axisymmetric Vectoring Exhaust Nozzle (AVEN). This includes an assessment of the AVEN nozzle and the modified F-16 flight control system to provide stability and control power in an expanded maneuvering envelope, an assessment of flying qualities, and an overall assessment of tactical utility. Also included are lessons learned regarding the testing and implementations of active control technology.
