Metallic 3D Printing May Revolutionize Maintenance for F-22 Raptor
Stars and Stripes | By Jennifer Svan

Maintainers at Hill Air Force Base, Utah, last month installed for the first time a metallic 3D-printed bracket on an operational F-22 Raptor, according to the Air Force and Lockheed Martin, the company that produces the $150 million aircraft.
