Pratt Ground Tests Thrust-reversing, 2d Nozzle for Stol Demonstrator
NEW YORK Pratt & Whitney is ground testing a thrust-reversing, two-dimensional nozzle design that will be flight tested on the USAF/McDonnell Douglas STOL/Maneuver Technology Demonstrator later this year. Although the S/MTD aircraft has been flying with 2D nozzles since May, the nozzles have not been equipped with their thrust reversers (AW&ST May 29, p. 44).
