“…Similar studies have been carried out for UAV [ 63 ]. The impact of morphing on stealth properties has been also addressed from an industrial point of view [ 64 ]. Examples of research activities on UCAV for implementing morphing technology to support and enhance stealth features are diffused, including CASC CH-7 UCAV and GJ-11 military drones in China [ 65 ], as well as B-2 bomber and monitoring drones in USA [ 66 ].…”

In a previous paper, the authors dealt with the current showstoppers that inhibit commercial applicability of morphing systems. In this work, the authors express a critical vision of the current status of the proposed architectures and the needs that should be accomplished to make them viable for installation onboard of commercial aircraft. The distinction is essential because military and civil issues and necessities are very different, and both the solutions and difficulties to be overcome are widely diverse. Yet, still remaining in the civil segment, there can be other differences, depending on the size of the aircraft, from large jets to commuters or general aviation, which are classifiable in tourism, acrobatic, ultralight, and so on, each with their own peculiarities. Therefore, the paper aims to trace a common technology denominator, if possible, and envisage a future perspective of actual applications.

In a previous paper, the authors dealt with the current showstoppers for morphing systems and with the reasons that have inhibited their commercial applicability. In this work, the authors ex-press a critical vision of the current status of the proposed architectures and the needs that should be accomplished to make them viable for installation onboard of commercial aircraft. The distinc-tion is essential because military and civil issues and necessities are very different, and both the solutions and difficulties to be overcome are widely diverse. Yet, still remaining in the civil seg-ment, there can be other differences, depending on the size of the aircraft, from large jets to com-muters or general aviation, in turn classifiable in tourism, acrobatic, ultralight and so on, each with their own peculiarities. Therefore, the paper wants to try to trace a common technology de-nominator, if possible, and envisage a future perspective of actual applications.
