The airfield is home to the Bundeswehr Technical and Airworthiness Center for Aircraft.. The first flights of the Tornado and Eurofighter prototypes took place here. The F104 and the F4 were flown here testing weapons systems in the 1960s, 70s and 80s. During the Space Shuttle missions it was considered as a landing site for TAL aborts.[citation needed]
