The advanced fighter aircraft structure is fabricated with metal materials including aluminium alloy
steel and titanium alloy materials. Due to both the high strength of steel and low density of aluminum
and the advantages of corrosion resistance
titanium alloy is paid more and more attention on a new generation of weapons and equipment in the countries all over the world and is widely used in structural materials
especially in the manufacture of advanced fighter aircraft structure especially. Such the United States
Russia
and China’s third generation fighter and F-22 as a new generation of fighter aircraft structures such as manufacturing titanium situation has been carried on the summary
especially for the United States fighter of the titanium alloy design selection ideas and hot forming process are analyzed and discussed.
