    the rear of the F135 engine (nozzle rotated down) that powers the Rolls-Royce LiftSystem. Instead of using separate lift engines, like the Yakovlev Yak-38, or rotating nozzles for engine bypass air, like the Harrier, the "LiftSystem" has a shaft-driven LiftFan, designed by Lockheed Martin and developed by Rolls-Royce, [3] and a thrust vectoring nozzle for the engine exhaust that provides lift ...

  7. Roof rack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roof_rack

    Roof racks increase air resistance and in the US, roof racks increased overall fuel consumption by approximately 1%. [6] Due to greater wind resistance, roof racks may increase wind noise on the highway. Mounting the roof rack backward may reduce air resistance. [7] Some bars are designed with a lower drag coefficient or have a wind deflector ...

  8. Helicopter flight controls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicopter_flight_controls

    To increase or decrease overall lift requires that the controls alter the angle of attack for all blades collectively by equal amounts at the same time, resulting in ascent, descent, acceleration and deceleration. A typical helicopter has three flight control inputs: the cyclic stick, the collective lever, and the anti-torque pedals. [2]

  9. Roof flap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roof_flap

    A race car's body is designed to optimize downforce, but if that body is spun so air is flowing in reverse, lift is generated instead of countered. [2] The roof flaps' job is to disrupt that airflow and prevent lift. [5] The decision to implement a safety device to keep cars on the ground came after two crashes in 1993.
