I know is says thrust vectoring but I don't see any.

I,ve see the the video before and it is just stall manuvuers. It has such a huge thrust to weight ratio that you can stall it and get right back out of the stall.

And the use of those forward winglets.

When you yaw and pitch with almost no forward movement, thats thrust vectoring.

Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

Watch the video a bit closer you can see the nozzles moving occasionally (the close up shot from under the aircraft).
