Sepecat Jaguar ACT Demonstrator

Aircraft & Exhibits, JUN 1975-JUN 1996, Cosford, Hangar Two, 1996/0168/A

The Active Control Technology (ACT) Jaguar was an analogue airframe modified to be less stable and fitted with fly-by-wire computer technology for trials work. Lessons learned from these trials was used in later aircraft like the EAP and Eurofighter Typhoon. No modern fighter jet today could fly without the use of computers.
