​@@Arnechk I think this comment is referring more to "force" than "pressure". An airplane pulling 12+ G even for a second, could be at risk of the wings falling off. Why? Modern combat-ready manned fighter jets have pre programmed G force limits. No matter the training the pilot has, forces over 9G tend to cause the pilot to lose consciousness after a few seconds; this means building the wings to withstand higher G forces would be a waste (adding strength adds weight, and adding weight reduces range, turn performance, climb performance, & acceleration), but there's probably some margin of safety.

@@Arnechk aerodynamic pressure, not the literal explotion from flammables and explosive materials, it was used as somekind of a metaphorical phrase. Its literal meaning is for the aircraft to be crushed by the overwhelming pressure of the air during its maneuver, in which the aircraft velocity and g force plays a big part as well.

I watched this aircraft at the 1995 Paris air show once and it was mighty impressive. Almost balancing on its tail while moving sideways, I had never seen anything like it and have not since. Amazing aircraft.

I have also seen three SU-27 types displaying (flying) doing tailslides and cobras all at the same time at Farnborough in the UK, I have also seen them at Fairford at "R.I.A.T" like I said very impressive but in no way as agile and maneuverable as the X-31 but one is a test aircraft and the other is built for war so completely different but both are impressive in manoeuvrability.

It’s a bit hard to see with the distant background providing very little reference point, but if I’m understanding this correctly, is the plane basically “stopping” at the height of a climb (hence “post-stall”), then rotating on a dime before burning into its new flight path?

@apieceofstring

Ай бұрын

It sounds a lot like this is the same as an Immelman, with the differences being that the rollout happens in the middle of the maneuver rather than at the end, and the top of the arc is conducted post-stall... But at the top of an Immelman an aircraft is already unloaded... Whats the benefit of post stall maneuverability if it's just being used in a situation where the aircraft is unloaded anyway? Thrust vectoring is inherently cool, but I feel like there's something missing in the explanation here.

@Arnechk

@@apieceofstring for this to be viable it would have to be executed at a very close distance and no missiles. Even if the adversary has no vectoring gimmicks they can do an immelman and be on the tail again. But it looks cool and thats what counts!

@@apieceofstring The difference is this is done by committing to a climb that you know will stall you out and knowing your thrust vectoring will allow you to still maneuver at the top. If you know the guy chasing you doesnt have the energy to follow you and he doesnt have thrust vectoring like you then you know youre safe to commit to stalling yourself and thus if the enemy commits too, you stall him as well and can take him out. And if the enemy doesnt follow you into the climb you will still have a positional advantage over him when you turn around because he didnt climb as high as you.

The Cobra isn't meant to turn, it's eventually done to surprise a following aircraft with a quick stop, to let the enemy pass, and you become the follower. The Cobra was a mistake, a little flaw with the Swedish Draken, J35, that super stalled, causing many accidents. However, pilots learned how to control and use it. They called it 'short parade'.

Interesting ... Btw.: I first thought it was an April's Fool joke, 'cause the name Herbst Manouver was a very common nane for NATO manouvers in Autum (Hebst) so I did some research in Wikipedia Dr. Wolfgang Herbst was killed during an accident in a scaled down replica of a FW190.

I once did this in a dogfight (I forgot in what game, I think it was war thunder) and everyone just gave up after I launched 3 missiles and got 3 kills (it was 1v6)

Ah, another awesome maneuver that would most likely get you killed in an actual dogfight 😂

You know shit is real when they include pitch down in the maneuver, instead of an inverted pitch up💀

Bro, this maneuver doesn’t require any thrust vectoring whatsoever. Infact you don’t even have to post stall. It’s literally just going vertical and applying some of the rudder. Almost like 1 circle fights exist

Oh wow !!

You would be trading off all momentum and virtually starting from zero. A very energy expensive maneuver.

Flat spin executed by Su57 is more Impressive. The wings of this aircraft would fall off if it tried that. Flat spin gives Su57 360 degrees attack capabilities. Remember, Fighter jets need high angle of attack for its guns. However 360 degrees attack access is more useful for launching missiles at chaser and hypersonic AA missiles are end of an engagement.

Yeah, well, in the bush we perfected a similarly effective, 3D canyon turn by combining it with a whifferdill, all while keeping both bank and pitch within FAA non-aerobatic requirements.

No acrobatics that leave you at 0 energy will be effective in real combat. Reversing your circle on a simple roll is already enough angular stability to make a gun or fox 2 solution viable. Edit: unless REALLY specific scenarios not even the all mighties of the thrust vectoring Flankers have been using any post stall manoeuvre in recent air combat

In the modern sense then no, but it was thrust vectoring as the "doors" at the back deflected the thrust so the aircraft could perform outlandishly crazy turns that Many others could not at the time.
