Abstract
A propulsion system for an aircraft is taught herein. The propulsion system includes, but is not limited to, an engine that is configured to produce a gas jet. The propulsion system further includes a nozzle that is coupled with the engine and that is disposed to receive the gas jet. The nozzle has a throat that is configured to expand and contract. The propulsion system still further includes a controller that is operatively coupled with the throat. The controller is configured to control the throat to expand and contract and to control a magnitude of a thrust imparted by the gas jet by controlling the throat to expand and contract. The controller is further configured to control the magnitude of the thrust by controlling the throat to expand and contract when the aircraft is flying at or above the local speed of sound.
