MIKOYAN MIG 29M OVT Vectored Thrust Demo

Quite simply one of the most legendary fast jet demos of recent years, showing the possibilities available to a pilot when he has 360 degrees of Vectored Thrust to play with.

This aircraft is one of the Mig29M prototypes, retro fitted with 360 degree thrust vectoring nozzles, enabling it to turn within its' own axis and produce the amazing manouvers you see here, including the backflip, the super cobra, and the flat spin. All under total control.

Also, during the final part of the display, we see the pilot stop playing around and open the jet up and really let rip with a very high speed rolling loop, for me possibly the highlight of the display.

Carbon fibre side widgets enable the freely rotating nard-shockers to resonate laterally thus producing starboard flexing of the auto/manual FBW munge spingers ...hold on, what the hell is 'its' then? Damn, the centrifugal punctuation warbler has burned out. Never mind, let's talk more about the Mk7 MF3B which is amongst the world's most advanced..."
