Divergent and Mach Industries have delivered the Venom autonomous strike aircraft prototype in just 71 days, slashing the typical 12 to 24-month development cycle. ๐Ÿš€ By using the Adaptive Production System (DAPS), they consolidated hundreds of parts into monolithic 3D-printed structures, eliminating traditional tooling. This software-defined approach enables the rapid scale-up of thousands of airframes annually. AM has officially moved from low-volume prototyping to the core of high-rate defense manufacturing. #AdditiveManufacturing #DefenseTech #3DPrinting #DAPS #Venom
