What this record is
Reviews amorphous metallic alloys as aerospace materials. It weighs strength and manufacturing advantages against brittleness and fatigue, identifying composites and improved lightweight alloys as more promising routes than using single-phase metallic glasses alone. This AAWSAP Defense Intelligence Reference Document is a historical technical review. Its inclusion in PURSUE does not validate the proposed technologies or link them to a particular UAP encounter.
