I have been trying to find out all I kind about the vortex projectors.
What I am wondering is this. Several years ago, I remember seeing a TV
special which mentioned, in passing, that the military was working on
some new kind of jet propulsion system. They showed a photo which showed
several bursts of exhaust from the rear of the plane, instead of the
usual straight plume of nasty gas. Is it possible they were using some
sort of vortex projector for the propulsion by igniting bursts of
fuel-air mixture? If I am not mistaken, this should provide higher
acceleration for the same amount of fuel. Is this a correct assumption?
