With a P-70 it was mandatory to have patience & thrust vectoring to get out of the inverted harriers and it wasn't quick to get out. A P-120 & vectoring will push it out immediately. Without vectoring on a P-70 and even on bigger engines, it can be a long wait for the nose to pitch out of the situation. Once I had to use the rudders to slice into a spin to get the nose to break below the horizon. Never tried the airbrake.
I used to do inverted spins, etc., and it is a little tricky and risky, so now I just make inverted laps or passes and do harriers, spins and hovers upright or nose up being careful not to let it fall over on it's back.. The gyroscopic effects of the turbine help make the jet want to spin right so do all spins to the planes left -upright or inverted- or clockwise veiwed from under.. It doesn't get stuck in a spin as easy, just kick opposite rudder and pipe and it's out, and if you have the power fly it out level or up..
