Recent developments in several technology areas related to turbine engine exhaust nozzles indicate the potential for significant advancements in the state-of-the-art. These technology areas include: nonaxisymmetric nozzles; high temperature composite materials; thrust reversing; and thrust vectoring. Trade studies have been performed to determine the impact of these developments on the installed performance of an advanced tractical aircraft. Results of these studies are presented and recommendations are made with regard to future directions of advanced development and demonstration. Significant improvements in both installed performance nad design flexibility can be expected with the introduction of high temperature composites into the exhaust nozzle. (Wassmann)
