The program convering the design and early technology development of Configuration E-7, a supersonic STOVL Fighter/Attack aircraft is described. This aircraft uses the ejector principle to augment engine fan air for vertical lift. The initial design objectives selected in …

STOVL - The aircraft was designed for a short takeoff roll of around 400 feet rather than a vertical takeoff. This results in a more balanced design, and removes much of the criticality for obtaining every possible ounce of vertical thrust. The 400 foot take-off more than triples the payload of the E …

The E7-A STOVL multi-role fighter was the product of an aircraft development program in the late 1980s by NASA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the Canadian Department of Industry Science and Technology (DIST), and industry partners General Dynamics and Boeing Dehavilland.

Ejector/Thrust Deflecting STOVL fighter: E-7A Oral Presentation 3 NASA, DARPA, the Canadian Government (DIST), and Industry conducted an aircraft development program in the late 1980s in response to increasing US/UK interest in supersonic V/STOL fighters.

General Dynamics (E7) is shown at upper left (Refs. 1, 8-10). tudinally on each side of the fuselage in the wing root area provide the forward lift while a deflecting

2015年3月18日 · The program covering the design and early technology development of Configuration E-7, a supersonic STOVL Fighter/Attack aircraft is described. This aircraft uses the ejector principle to augment engine fan air for vertical lift. The initial design objectives selected in 1980 are listed and discussed.

This paper reviews ejector development at DHC over the past 25 years and focuses on the features proposed for the E7 wind tunnel model. The E7 aircraft is a STOVL project study design by General Dynamics, Fort Worth, which utilizes lift ejector technology developed by DHC (Ref. 1).

The E7 aircraft is a STOVL project study design by General Dynamics, Fort Worth, which utilizes lift ejector technology developed by DHC ( Ref. 1 ). Efforts to maximize thrust augmentation ratio within the packaging constraints of typical STOVL aircraft configurations are described. Experimental results from antecedents of the E7 ejector are ...
