Firestorm Labs prepares launch of modular 3D-printed drones

In what appears to be an example of new thinking arising at the right time to meet to shifting aerial demands – especially under the influence of Ukraine’s defense of the Russian invasion – San Diego-based company Firestorm Labs is preparing to offer entirely modular drones whose 3D-printing manufacturing process aims to offer considerable flexibility and speed of production in fulfilling defense and security users’ needs.

Firestorm Labs began work on its modular drone approach before Moscow started its offensive last year. Since then, its founding belief that new production capabilities can allow it to respond to the increasingly rapid changes awaiting defense clients has begun looking prescient indeed.

The company’s approach is based on a computer-designed, 3D-printed manufacturing process conceived to easily adapt drone output to evolving mission requirements, and deliver craft faster than otherwise possible – a potentially…
