Hmm... one does get the impression that 2d thrust vectoring is important for this aircraft, however... if one is willing to give up stability... I suppose getting into a pitching moment is always possible - just not recovering from it :)


Mocking it up in X-plane should give a decent idea for the subsonic flight regime (although I'm not sure how well it handles the tail being so deeply shrouded by the wings at high AoA)? If someone has access to a full CFD suite with tools for calculating pitch efficacy they could probably do better?
