A vectorable nozzle includes convergent and divergent sections and a throat therebetween. Heightwise spaced apart upper and lower walls outwardly bound a nozzle flowpath and extend aftwardly through the convergent and divergent sections from the nozzle inlet to the nozzle outlet. The upper wall includes triangular left and right side convergent upper panels pivotably mounted to a triangular convergent upper ramp in the convergent section along left and right side convergent angled hinge lines respectively. The upper wall further includes triangular left and right side divergent upper panels pivotably attached to a triangular divergent upper ramp in the divergent section along left and right side divergent angled hinge lines respectively. The left and right side convergent upper panels are in sealing engagement with the left and right side divergent upper panels along left and right side upper interfaces, respectively.
