AMEL had the privilege of being involved in a game-changing aviation project with AERALIS, assisting with digital design and model-based engineering to test their brand-new British military aircraft and producing two full-scale mock ups using composite manufacturing, produced using similar techniques to the eventual production aircraft.

AERALIS is solving issues faced by air forces for generations challenged with operation a mix of single point aircraft designs, by offering a modular design jet aircraft reconfigurable to cover a variety of roles including operational training, basic jet training, aerobatics and light combat.

Talking about the mock-ups, which took AMEL only three months to produce from start to finish including tooling, final production and wrapping, Aeralis describe how visitors to their stand at DIMDEX 2022 last month were wowed by the replicas, with many visitors wanting selfies with the aircraft!

AERALIS were themselves captivated when they saw the finished models for the first time.
