Manufacturing Platform Designed to Help Defense and Aerospace Manufacturers Save “Months and Millions”

Lod, Israel, 24th June 2026 – As the global defense and aerospace industries scramble to keep up with demand, Massivit (TASE: MSVT) has launched RapidWings—a new turnkey composite manufacturing platform that could save defense and aeronautical companies “months and millions”. Established to accelerate Defense production lead times, the platform is already operational in Israel and is currently scaling its operations globally.

Built on Massivit’s proprietary Cast-In-Motion (CIM) technology, RapidWings significantly compresses composite tooling lead times, saving clients time and money. In some cases, processes that took 3 months now take a matter of days. RapidWings partners have reported up to 70% savings in cost, versus conventional metal and machinable-board tooling.

Against the backdrop of surging Defense budgets worldwide, OEMs and manufacturing primes in the Defense industry have suffered debilitating backlogs due to unstable supply chains and outsourcing constraints. Over the past year, Massivit has received increasing demand for manufacturing services from Defense buyers in Europe, the USA, Southeast Asia, and India. The company is establishing RapidWings, a global network of local, on-demand, sovereign production facilities, to overcome recognized manufacturing bottlenecks in the Defense arena.

The RapidWings network will consist of regional partnerships, Joint Manufacturing Alliances (JMAs), with certified Tier-2 composite manufacturing facilities. By embedding Massivit’s unique Cast In Motion digital tooling capability into established manufacturing facilities, JMA partners will have the opportunity to accelerate and scale production without additional capital expenditure.

The first JMA—between Israel-based Comparts Ltd. and Massivit—is currently fully operational, with ongoing defense engagements serving leading OEMs. According to numerous Defense programs completed to date, the RapidWings platform has been shown to overcome backlogs by significantly shortening production tooling lead times from months to days, based on Cast In Motion automated technology. The RapidWings model allows JMA partners to retain full operational control of their existing business and customer relationships while acquiring the capability to accept a greater volume of orders. Results of programs completed thus far have also revealed a 40–70% reduction in tooling costs as compared to conventional tooling methods.

Massivit is currently accepting applications from qualified composite manufacturers in the USA and Europe to join its expanding RapidWings network.

Yossi Azarzar, CEO, Massivit: “Defense is a necessity worldwide. By cutting manufacturing times, RapidWings’ proprietary technology could save defense and aeronautical companies months and millions. RapidWings marks a strategic milestone for Massivit as we pivot from providing industrial 3D printers to delivering a much-needed Defense manufacturing platform that overcomes bottlenecks and empowers manufacturers to scale.”

 

Brigadier General, Chris Athearn, USAF (Ret.), Advisory Board Member added: “Today, the greatest weapon is the factory — the ability to generate weapons faster than we expend them. Massivit has a unique capability to significantly shorten manufacturing timelines which increases capacity and the ability to replenish weapons stores faster. The US Defense Industrial Base is desperate for innovation that accelerates hardware to the field. Industrial collaboration between our allies is how we all win.”

Brigadier General (Res.), Gabriel Shachor, Advisory Board Member stated: “Security agencies cannot afford to wait months for critical composite structures. RapidWings changes the game — shortening cycles from months to days. It ensures a structural change in the way aerospace programs move from concept to operational deployment and delivers a direct response to the need for mass-production of unmanned vehicles.”

According to industry forecasts, the global unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) market value is expected to reach ~$47.6 billion this year and grow to ~$160 billion by 2034, at an estimated annual growth rate (CAGR) of ~16.4%.
