Eurofighter Wears Black.

This dramatic photo of the Eurofighter Typhoon Development Aircraft 2 (DA2) shows its new black skin -- painted so to unify its colour scheme since it is wearing about 500 pressure sensors to monitor aircraft conditions during high-speed and high-angle-of-attack manoeuvres. The DA2 underwent supersonic flight tests under the direction of BAE Systems' Eurofighter test pilot and the RAF Squadron Leader, as well as the ground crew and a core team of flight test engineers.
