Tejas yakavakwa nealuminium-lithium alloys, carbon-fiber composites, uye titanium alloys. Composite materials make up 45% of the airframe by weight and 95% by surface area. Upper and lower wing skins are manufactured from a single piece of carbon-fiber reinforced polymer. Wing spars and ribs are also made out of carbon composites. The percentage of carbon composites in the airframe by weight rose from 30% in the technology demonstrators to 42% in the prototype vehicles. Kuvakwa kwe elevons, tailfin, rudder, air brakes and landing gear doors use co-cured and co-bonded manufacturing techniques. Passage: Tejas yakavakwa nealuminium-lithium alloys, carbon-fiber composites, uye titanium alloys. Composite materials make up 45% of the airframe by weight and 95% by surface area. Composite materials are used to make a lighter aircraft by weight. Upper and lower wing skins are manufactured from a single piece of carbon-fiber reinforced polymer.
