Analytical aerodynamic models are derived from a high alpha 6
DOF wind tunnel model. One detail model requires some interpolation
between nonlinear functions of alpha. One analytical model requires
no interpolation and as such is a completely continuous model. Flight
path optimization is conducted on the basic maneuvers: half-loop,
90 degree pitch-up, and level turn. The optimal control analysis uses
the derived analytical model in the equations of motion and is based
on both moment and force equations. The maximum principle solution
for the half-loop is poststall trajectory performing the half-loop in 13.6
seconds. The agility induced by thrust vectoring capability provided
a minimum effect on reducing the maneuver time. By means of thrust
vectoring control the 90 degrees pitch-up maneuver can be executed
in a small place over a short time interval. The agility capability of
thrust vectoring is quite beneficial for pitch-up maneuvers. The level
turn results are based currently on only outer layer solutions of singular
pertrubation. Poststall solutions provide high turn rates but generate
higher losses of energy than that of classical sustained solutions.
