The test was to prove how the Flight Control System (FCS) reacts with full weaponry loaded, Eurofighter said.
The IPA 7 also completed five Missile Approach Warning (MAW) flights, carried out with the support of a Luftwaffe F-4 Phantom and a Tornado.
The UK-based RAF Harrier will take part in the MAW trials for the aircrafts in August 2009.
