COEUR DâALENE, ID. â April 7, 2021 â Continuous Composites successfully completed the Air Force Research Laboratoryâs two-year Wing Structure Design for Manufacturing (WiSDM) contract through Lockheed Martin to manufacture a Low Cost Attritable Aircraft (LCAA) wing. The project focused on a new structural design paradigm, when coupled with commensurate materials and manufacturing, to substantially reduce costs and lead times for attritable airframe structures. Continuous Compositesâ patented Continuous Fiber 3D Printing (CF3D®) technology successfully printed the structural carbon fiber spars of the wing assembly. Structural performance was demonstrated when the completed wing box was statically tested and achieved 160% design limit load (DLL) before the compression skin buckled. The spars did not fail.

On December 9 the U.S. Air Force undertook inflight connectivity trials with the Lockheed Martin F-22A and F-35A fighters, each of which carried a GatewayOne payload. Thanks to this equipment, the two aircraft passed critical mission data between themselves and ground nodes.
Conducted by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) and Air Force Lifecycle Management Center (AFLMC), with the 46th Test Squadron from Eglin AFB, the trials took place over the Yuma Proving Ground in Arizona. They involved an F-22 from the Edwards AFB-based 411th Flight Test Squadron and an F-35A from the Nellis AFB-based 59th Test and Evaluation Squadron.
