Studies of generic aircraft configurations to determine the payoff of thrust vectoring for direct lift during STOL landings and takeoff and for control power augmentation during weapons-delivery maneuvers are described. Results show that for a nominal 1000-foot landing distance, direct-lift benefits are small, but significant improvements in control power augmentation contribute to payoffs in takeoff distance and recovery from roll-pitch-coupling-induced departures at high angles of attack.
