Hello,
I've a stupid question ...
"Supersonic " have rules of this kind :
Each time this model
moves, first pivot it on the spot up to 90° (this does
not contribute to how far the model moves), and then
move the model straight forwards.
Well in 8th, rules doesnt define the front...so "forward" mean nothing in the rules. RAW what prevent me to move my aircraft to any direction if i don't pivot it ?

1)The English Language defines what "forward" means. It's the same as how they don't define that dice are numbered 1 to 6.
2) You can define any orientation to be "forward" but you don't have permission to change it mid game.

ha , yes, ! thank you !
A mark on the base (starwars legion style) should kill all ambiguity on the orientation.

Yes,it still has a clear front facing. If you move forward there is no ambiguity as to where the front is. It even has a tail fin.
