Panavia TORNADO: From Scale Model Tests to Flying Prototypes | Part 2
@AeronauticaMilitareOfficial #panaviatornado #acdrone #aircraft #aerospaceengineering
Welcome to the second episode of our series dedicated to the Panavia Tornado, one of the most advanced and influential military aircraft of its time. In this installment, we'll delve into the details of the rigorous testing programs that marked this aircraft's development. We'll explore the tests conducted on small-scale models and analyze the flight tests of prototypes, highlighting how these critical steps contributed to the aircraft's final design.
