Chomarat will exhibit a drone wing called Dash X. © Chomarat Chomarat, a leading specialist in textile reinforcements for composites, is presenting two new applications using C-Ply, its innovative carbon multiaxial non-crimp fabric (NCF). For the first time, the specialist in composite reinforcements will exhibit a drone wing designed in partnership with VX Aerospace and Northrup Grumman Corporation and a kayak created in partnership with Confluence Outdoor at the CAMX Expo, which takes place in Orlando, FL, next week.

Chomarat will exhibit a drone wing called Dash X, a Class II UAV that was created in partnership with VX Aerospace and Northrup Grumman Corporation. The drone can be folded and stowed inside a cylindrical container that is carried and deployed from a tactical aircraft. C-Ply is used in the construction of the wing, the horizontal stabilisers, the vertical fin and all of the control surfaces.
