Here is a short video of the F-16 MATV which first flew in 1993 and finished it's testing in 1994. The backflip, J-turn and “Helicopter“ maneuvers were just three of many maneuvers the F-16 MATV could do. It was one of a few different jet's like the F-18 HARV, F-15 ACTIVE, X-31 that were fitted with 3-D thrust vectoring nozzles. The F-16 MATV was doing all that the Mig-29 OVT can do back in 1993 and 1994.
