The image gallery shows images of the research aeroplanes and helicopters of the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR). These sometimes highly modified aircraft form the largest civilian research aircraft fleet in Europe, operated by DLR.
The primary objective of DLR aerospace research activities is to enhance the competitiveness of Germany and Europe's aerospace and air transport industries and to achieve governmental and societal objectives. In addition to fundamental research work, DLR is primarily concerned with applied aerospace research and development.
Ten aircraft and two helicopters are used by the German Aerospace Center (DLR). Here, information about modifications, technical data and applications of the research aircraft and helicopters is presented clearly.
