Composite next generation air frames may potentially be less than half the weight, overall, and up to several times stronger.

With advanced nanotechnology based fuel storage techniques combined with novel hybrid engines one might well envisage a new era of aerospace progress.

From the perspective of minimizing frame weight the relative nuclear mass of nanostructures compared to electrostatic bond strength, in the context of solid state particle arrangement, combined with component joining technology is critical.

Notably the potential use of relatively light atomic nuclei with high strength electrostatic peer binding, in nanotube based substrate material may be economically feasible.
