Originally posted by GScholz The SU-30MK (the one with the canards since the regular Su-30 has none) has thrust vectoring. Unlike the Raptor the Su-30MK has 2D thrust vectoring (pitch and yaw), not just 1D (pitch). Almost all the technology used in the Su-35 technology demonstrator is incorporated into the Su-30MK/MKI/MKK.
Originally posted by SunTracker The F-22 has internal thrust vectoring, while Russian aircraft have external. Internal thrust vectoring provides less radar signature, but also reduced performance.
Originally posted by SunTracker The actual tailpipe of these aircraft move. On the F-22, the thrust vectoring occurs inside the aircraft.
