Isaiah Salinas, right, a test engineer/test manager with the 716th Squadron, 804th Test Group, Arnold Engineering Development Complex, speaks to Salem Almutairi about store separation testing during the first day of The Great Tennessee Air Show in Smyrna, Tenn., June 10, 2023. On the table, sits a scale model of an A-10 Thunderbolt II. Store separation testing is one type of testing conducted using scale models in the wind tunnels at Arnold Air Force Base, Tenn., headquarters of AEDC. The testing provides confidence to test pilots that stores, such as missiles and bombs, can be launched or dropped under a specific range of flight conditions and they will safely depart the aircraft.
