A Supermaneuverable aircraft is defined as an aircraft which has been designed to routinely pull more than 9 Gs during normal maneuvers. Supermaneuverable aircraft are not usually seen in use, due to the stresses placed on the pilot during extreme maneuvers, however unmanned aerial vehicles which could be classified as supermaneuverable aircraft are quite common.
Users
