Progress and Prospect of Typhoon Flight Science Experiments

In recent years, great progress has been made in the scientific research and operational work of tropical cyclone (typhoon).However, the insufficient offshore typhoon data hinders the typhoon discipline from breaking through its bottleneck and restricts its further development..Therefore, it has become a top priority to use various types of aircraft to observe typhoon.After looking back on the use of different types of aircraft at home and abroad in the past few decades (manned aircraft, UAV and rocket, etc.) for typhoon detection, the paper looks into the future development of typhoon flight science experiments.
