U.S.-Israeli additive manufacturing specialist Stratasys will be exhibiting an all-new, one-off, “printed” UAV here at the Dubai Air Show this week, along with a video of the aircraft’s first flight. The only thing that isn’t printed using “additive manufacturing” technology is the small turbojet engine and its electronics and servos.
