. The AMX International AMX "Ghibli" is a ground-attack aircraft which has been specifically designed for battlefield interdiction, close air support and reconnaissance missions.It was built in a joint venture between Brazil and Italy. The AMX is capable of operating at high subsonic speed and low altitude, by day or night, and if necessary, from bases with poorly equipped or damaged runways. Low IR signature and reduced radar equivalent cross-section help prevent detection, while low vulnerability of structure and systems aid survivability. This combination of features enabled the Italian Air Force's AMX squadrons to fly 252 combat sorties over Kosovo as part of Operation Allied Force, without a single loss. Integrated ECM, air-to-air missiles and nose-mounted guns provide self-defence capabilities. The AMX has something extra for you though: it features vectored thrust. The technique was originally employed to provide upward vertical thrust as a means to give aircraft vertical (VTOL) or short (STOL) takeoff and landing ability. Thrust vectoring is the ability of an aircraft to direct the thrust from its engine(s) in a direction other than parallel to the vehicle's longitudinal axis. Soon, it was realised that using vectored thrust in combat situations enabled aircraft to perform manoeuvres not available to conventional-engined planes.8v battery, and 5ch electronics.

EDF - Electric Ducted Fan Jets, are propelled via a strong electrical motor (usually brushless for extra speed and power) that is blown down a duct to focus the airflow and provide 'vectored thrust'. Ducted Fan jets come in 3 standard sizes with the large sizes usually providing more power and speed. 50mm EDF, 64mm EDF and 70mm EDF radio controlled jets are all available. All EDF Jets are usually at least 4 channel and have enough power to do inverted flight and great stunts! Not for beginners.
