Thrust reversal, also called reverse thrust, is the temporary diversion of an aircraft engine's thrust for it to act against the forward travel of the aircraft, providing deceleration. Thrust reverser systems are featured on many jet aircraft to help slow down just after touch-down, reducing wear on the brakes and enabling shorter landing ...
Video of a target-type thrust reverser in operation. Target-type thrust reversal (also called bucket thrust reversal or clamshell thrust reversal [1]) is a deceleration method when an aircraft lands. Like other types of thrust reversals, it temporarily diverts the engine exhaust forward to provide deceleration. This type of thrust-reverser is ...
Pre-production F-15B with 2D nozzles, early 1980s, a predecessor of STOL/MTD program. In 1975, Langley Research Center began to conduct sponsored programs studying two-dimensional thrust vectoring nozzles; [6]: 44 government and industry studies of non-axisymmetric two-dimensional (2-D) nozzles in the early 1970s had identified significant payoffs for thrust-vectoring 2-D nozzle concepts.
The weapons, vehicles and equipment used in the Russo-Ukrainian War, from 2014 to the present include the following. The war involves the Armed Forces of Ukraine , the Armed Forces of Russia , the Korean People's Army , and a number of national guard and volunteer groups.
A Beechjet 400A (a small business jet) with its left-hand Pratt and Whitney JT15D engine running at idle; and the engine's Nordam target-type or bucket thrust reverser being deployed three times after maintenance. Video shot by YSSYguy on 27 April 20...
[18] [19] In 2019, War Thunder was among the most played games on Steam with over 25,000 concurrent players. [20] [a] As of November 1, 2022, War Thunder had over 70 million registered players on all platforms combined, out of which 160,000 play concurrently. [21] In February 2024, War Thunder set a new record of over 250,000 concurrent players ...
A multi-axis thrust vectoring engine nozzle in motion. Thrust vectoring, also known as thrust vector control (TVC), is the ability of an aircraft, rocket or other vehicle to manipulate the direction of the thrust from its engine(s) or motor(s) to control the attitude or angular velocity of the vehicle.

Designed for the 2A82-1M gun on T-14 Armata tanks, the 3UBK21 Sprinter has millimeter wave semi-automatic command to line of sight (SACLOS) guidance and a tandem shaped-charge HEAT warhead. It has an effective range of 50 m to 12000 m. and can penetrate 950 millimetres (37 in) of steel rolled homogeneous armour (RHAe) after explosive reactive ...
