ABSTRACT:
An exhaust nozzle for a gas turbine engine where pitch and yaw vectoring is achieved using fluidics by injecting high pressure air into the exhaust stream. The injected high pressure air deflects the exhaust stream, vectoring the aircraft accordingly. The injected high pressure air for vectoring is selectively injected. A pivoting manifold 44 allows for injection of either ram air (52) or vectoring high pressure air (56) into the exhaust flow.
