Hammerhead?

Hammerhead:

OP's first video says it's a hammerhead but he's missing the rudder kick. That said, a jet's rudders don't work at 0 airspeed, anyhow, whereas props have prop wash. With the F-14 your only option is to try splitting the throttles at max and min and hoping you don't stall one or both of the engines.

A hammerhead and stall turn are two different departures. The hammerhead is where the aircraft pitches up then slides backwards then the nose dips forwards to recover. A stall turn is where the aircraft pitches up then at low speed produces a yaw turn and winds up facing back in the opposite direction and recovers.

Every source I've seen uses the terms interchangeably, I've never seen a reverse speed pitching maneuver.
