I remember seeing an article (1990's) in either Flight or Aviation week about "fuselage strakes" which could be added to "any current fighter" to give it "fly by wire like agility" simply by adding these full length fuselage strakes to a fighter like, say, a Mig-21 for example.The article had a picture of a mockup aircraft with the featured strakes.Anyone have the article and info? Havent seen this idea used on any upgrades of older aircraft, seemed like a great idea if it worked.I think the idea was from China.
