Military Aircraft

ONERA Wind Tunnel Division test facilities offer a large capabilities for testing missile and launcher, with complete model or components (air intake, wings, rear part, ...) in the different flight phases (separation phases, cruise conditions, performances, high angle of attack, limit of the flight envelope conditions, ...).

  • Missile loadings
  • Full scale complete missile tests - Power on
  • Air intake performances
  • Infrared signature
  • Model dynamic stability coefficients
  • Booster separation (with CTS)
  • Jet simulation (hot and cold gas)

For separation test, see "military aircraft" section


Launcher test in S2MA

Booster separation simulation in S3MA

Supersonic missile air intake test in S3MA

Complete missile test power on in S1MA

Nozzle test in S4b
