Title: RAF jets fly with 3D printed parts
Post by: mhm on January 05, 2014, 10:13:48 PM
RAF Tornado fighter jets have flown with parts made using 3D printing technology for the first time, defence company BAE Systems has said.

The metal components were used in test flights from the firm's airfield at Warton, Lancashire, late last month.
