The Rockwell-Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm X-31 Enhanced Fighter Maneuverability program was designed to test fighter thrust vectoring technology. Thrust vectoring provides additional control authority in pitch and yaw, resulting in significantly more maneuverability than most conventional fighters. VTOL for airbrakes. please enjoy

Thank you @DownUnderWing
Thanks @SirGorbachev
@Noman0rumeral hm right!
Thanks @Zap210
Thanks @Kimo @Misha1004
@AviownCorp I know it was to help counteract down pitch
@Noman0rumeral putting CoM little bit further from CoF makes your plane more stable
@AviownCorp Ok i think ill make an X-32 some time with those improvements. Thanks
Nice job! Good use of airbrakes. Just make airbrakes invert so they can be operated more easily and place the CoM little bit further from CoF
