ABSTRACT:
A microjet based control system helps control the feedback loop that is created by an impinging jet of a STOVL aircraft. A plurality of microjets circumferentially encompass the outer periphery of the impinging jet and each issues a jet flow toward the jet flow created by the impinging jet. A control system is connected to the microjets for adaptively controlling the microjets based on various operating parameters collected by various input devices.
