Research infrastructure at DLR

The construction and operation of large-scale research facilities is a statutory task of the German Aerospace Center (DLR). The facilities, as well as the research aircraft and helicopters, enable DLR to carry out its research in aeronautics, space, energy, transport, security and digitalisation. The DLR research infrastructure also includes the Systemhaus Technik, a unit specialising in the construction of scientific equipment, including the development and manufacture of complex, unique devices.

DLR's research infrastructure is used across its institutes and programmes, and both German and international partners from research and industry can benefit from DLR's facilities, research aircraft and know-how.
