  • Patent number: 9341141
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a low signature jet engine outlet comprising movable border segments forming at least one circular arc and being movable radially for controlling the form and area of the outlet, at least one stationary border element for defining the form and area of the outlet, and movable coupling means for connecting the at least one circular arc to the at least one stationary border element. The coupling means are movable along a connection part of the at least one stationary border element, and the connection part of the at least one stationary border element is substantially flat and extending in a substantially radial direction of the at least one circular arc.

  • Publication number: 20140131513
    Abstract: A cover for covering a gap between a first structural portion and a second structural portion of an aerial vehicle. A first attachment section is attachable to the first structural portion. A second flexible section covers the gap. The second flexible section includes an abutment portion for abutting against the second structural portion in an operating state. The abutment portion in an unloaded state forms an undulating shape having troughs and crests extending along a curved plane. The curvature of the curved plane essentially corresponds with the curvature of the surface of the second structural portion. The troughs are provided for engagement with the surface in the operating state such that the troughs tend to be flatten out and propagate over the surface pressing down neighboring crests towards the surface for providing a close fit between the cover and the second structural portion.

  • Publication number: 20050205716
    Abstract: The invention relates to a stealth craft having several essentially plane external surfaces (13a-d), at least some of these external surfaces being arranged to incline towards each other so as to meet in an outer edge (12). The outer edge (12) is divided into at least a first outer edge section (12a) and a second outer edge section (12b), which first and second outer edge sections (12a, 12b) extend along a respective essentially straight line as seen in a lateral view of the craft, at least one part of the first outer edge section (12a) and one part of the second outer edge section (12b) forming part of an outer periphery line (18) of the craft as seen in a planar view of the craft from the upside or underside of the craft.
