Abstract Since the 1960s, the application of composites on helicopter structure has obtained rapid development. The
traditional prepreg-autoclave molding composites on the structure of helicopter has made a large number of applications,
but with the development of composite technology and helicopters, the demand of low-cost technology and the overall
molding technology, the low cost liquid molding composite is gradually applied in helicopters. Based on RTM and VARI
two kinds of liquid forming technology, the application of liquid composites molding on the helicopter is reviewed in this
paper, to help helicopter design and composite material technology personnel.
