Chris Powell, a Lockheed Martin engineer, inspects the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) model during a break in aerodynamics load testing in Propulsion Wind Tunnel’s 16-foot transonic wind tunnel. Arnold Engineering Development Center has played a key role in the development of the multi-service, multi-national JSF conducting aerodynamic and weapons separation wind tunnel testing as well as ongoing multi-year $200 million test program for the aircraft’s Pratt & Whitney F135 engine. The center is also scheduled to test alternate the Rolls-Royce/GE F136 engine.
