This report identifies, describes, and quantifies the cost effects of structural materials that are likely to be incorporated into aircraft becoming operational in the 1990s (aluminum, aluminum-lithium, steel, titanium, graphite/epoxy, graphite/bismaleimide, and graphite/ thermoplastic). The first half of this report is a primer for advanced aircraft structural materials emphasizing polymer matrix composites. The second half of the report contains both cost data and a cost estimating methodology sensitive to material mix. For each material type separate cost factors are presented for two time frames, the late 1980s and the mid-1990s, and for the following cost elements: nonrecurring engineering, nonrecurring tooling, recurring engineering, recurring tooling, manufacturing labor, manufacturing material, and quality assurance. These factors are based on data obtained from Boeing Airplane Company, General Dynamics Corporation, Grumman Aerospace Corporation, Lockheed Aerospace Systems Corporation-California Division and Georgia Division, LTV Aerospace and Defense Aircraft Group, McDonnell Douglas Corporation, Northrop Aircraft Division, and Rockwell international Group.
