Lightweighting is a huge part of EV range extension, but the energy cost of producing carbon fiber is still high. I wonder if they are using any recycled composites or just virgin fiber.
Exactly. The embodied carbon in these materials often offsets the operational gains unless the lifecycle is really long. The cost of these parts usually keeps them out of mass market retrofits too.
Interesting to see the split between military and civilian drones. From a policy side, the subsidies for green transport often overlook the manufacturing footprint of the materials used.
