Abstract: Bird or hail stone strikes are an important phenomenon which must be considered during aircraft design. Most of major bird or hail strike incidents result from engine ingestion. As engines are the sole thrust providing mechanisms of an aircraft, it is critical to investigate and mitigate the effects of bird or hail strikes on engine inlets and systems to the greatest extent possible. The article presents application of test verified numerical simulation for design and full-scale test verification of advanced composite air inlet for new generation of jet trainer aircraft from point of view of high speed impact resistance. The physical bird and hail impact tests were performed at the Czech Aerospace Research Centre (VZLÚ) according to airworthiness requirements. The measurement during impact test were performed by high-speed camera, Fiber Bragg Grating (FGB) sensors and strain gauges in cooperation with Czech Technical University (CTU) in Prague. The results from full-scale bird and hail strike tests were compared with numerical simulation.
