Although some industry in Ukraine might nog have better things to do and the speed at which stuff can be made increases “a bit”… I’m not thinking everything… just some parts.
The agility of 3d printing is magnificent. It allows small adjustments to be made and distributed for rapid iteration of improvement. Even local experimentation of modifications and custom part printing.
On top of this 3d printers can print anything, not just drone parts… so it might help on other fronts too.
Injection molding is capital intensive and generally geographically concentrated (i.e. factories). It makes for easy and expensive targets.
3d printing can be distributed, and capable printers are amazingly cheap.
There’s way more to it, just pointing out one “pro” for 3dp
Absolutely, no doubt about it.
