Editing Black Dart

The '''X-41 Black Dart''' is a futuristic military [[spaceplane]]. It is currently under development.

==Features==
* Nozzle extension deploys depending on thrust level (~chamber pressure) and ambient pressure, optimizing [[ISP]].
* Ladder deploys automatically when landing gear down and Ventral Bay Doors open.

 The '''X-41 Black Dart''' is a futuristic military [[spaceplane]]. It is currently under development.
 ==Features==
-* Main engine can gimbal from +5° to -90°, allowing hover flight in combination with a thruster in the nose.
 * Nozzle extension deploys depending on thrust level (~chamber pressure) and ambient pressure, optimizing [[ISP]].
-* Nozzle performance depends on ambient and chamber pressure.
 * Ladder deploys automatically when landing gear down and Ventral Bay Doors open.
-==Main Engine==
-Main engine TVC trim angle can only pass past -5°, when Main engine doors are opened.
-Main engine doors can only close when TVC trim angle is between +5° and -5°.
-The nozzle extension position has three modes, RET, AUTO and DPY. RET keeps the nozzle in the retracted position, DPY keeps the nozzle extended.
-{{Warning|Vertical landing with deployed nozzle extension can result in nozzle damage.}}
-When in AUTO mode, the nozzle extension logic selects nozzle extension position for optimal ISP at current thrust level and ambient pressure. The automatic mode also retracts the nozzle when flying below 20m altitude.
