3. Materials for 3D drone printing
Polymers, metals, composites, ceramics, graphene... the range of materials available for additive manufacturing is constantly expanding. In 2023, NATO even devoted a special report about new materials for additive manufacturing and their potential use in many fields related to defense and UAVs: materials with high heat dissipation, coatings designed to reduce radar signature, lightweight and flexible batteries, low-light working devices, etc.
Far from providing an exhaustive list of these materials, here are a few examples of concrete uses related to the world of drones (see figure
