The purpose of this paper is to assess the influence of a novel type of vortex creation device called the leading-edge vortex controller (LEVCON) on the aerodynamic characteristics of a fighter jet. LEVCON has become a trending term in modern military aircraft in recent years and is a continuation of an existing and widely used aerodynamic solution called the leading-edge root extension (LERX). LEVCON is designed to operate on the same principles as LERX, but its aim is to generate lift-augmenting vortices, i.e., vortex lift, at higher angles of attack than LERX. To demonstrate the methodology, a custom delta wing fighter aircraft is introduced, and details about its aerodynamic configuration are provided. The LEVCON geometry is designed and then incorporated into an existing three-dimensional (3D) model of the aircraft in question. The research is conducted using OpenFOAM 8, a high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD) open-source software. The computational cases are designed to simulate the aircraft’s flight at stall velocities within a high range of angles of attack. The results are assessed and discussed in terms of aerodynamic characteristics. A conclusion is drawn from the analysis regarding the perceived improvements in fighter jet aerodynamics. The analysis reveals that both lift and critical angle of attack can be manipulated positively. With the addition of LEVCON, the average lift gain in the high angle of attack (α) range is between 8.5% and 10%, while the peak gain reaches 19.4%. The critical angle of attack has also increased by 2°, and a flatter stall characteristic has been achieved.
