Brandon Hedges, Hill Aerospace Museum's restoration chief, describes how 3D printers were used to restore the F-117 Nighthawk Sept. 12, 2025, at Hill Air Force Base, Utah. The technology has delivered an 80% cost savings and saved hundreds of hours since the museum acquired the printers and scanners for restoration and exhibits. (U.S. Air Force photo by Cynthia Griggs)
