Abstract: This paper summarizes the development plans which promoting the applications of composite materials in aircraft in Europe and the United States for the last 40 years, as well as the composite materials used in military and civilian aircraft at different times. In the meantime, this paper comparatively analyzes the development of domestic aviation composite materials and the composite materials used in domestic military and civilian aircraft in different periods, and introduces the automated manufacturing technology of composite materials and the low-cost manufacturing technology of liquid composite moulding. Finally, the opportunities and challenges in domestic advanced composites′ manufacturing field was proposed.

Key words: advanced composite materials, automatic manufacturing of composite materials, low cost manufacturing of composite materials
