World War II marked a revolutionary period in aviation history, with rapid advancements in aircraft design driven by combat requirements. Fighters such as the Supermarine Spitfire, Messerschmitt Bf 109, and North American P-51 Mustang introduced aerodynamic features that were far ahead of their time. Although these aircraft were designed using wind tunnel testing and empirical methods, modern Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) provides a powerful tool to analyze their aerodynamic performance in detail. CFD allows engineers to numerically simulate airflow around aircraft surfaces, offering insights into lift, drag, pressure distribution, and flow separation that were not accessible during the 1940s.
