Abstract
This project aims to design and manufacture an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) structure using nano aluminum and carbon composite materials named “Arabian Leopard.” Over the past period, the UAV market has experienced significant growth. In 2019, at least 60 countries were engaged in the development or implementation of at least 1,300 different drones. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is no exception; as a result, it prioritized this sector in Vision 2030 through investment and support to localize and develop it. The ANSYS fluent software will conduct a CFD simulation of the UAV design and airfoil. The airfoil CFD simulation is used to find the lift/drag characteristics of the airfoil used in the UAV design. In this CFD simulation, we conducted an airfoil simulation using Ansys Fluent software. From here, our project is to enhance the local content, present a unique design that embodies a national identity, and introduce nano-aluminum into the airframe to increase its durability, as the aerial vehicle (AV) is the primary component of the UAV system.

Key words: Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV); Nano aluminum and carbon composite materials; Arabian Leopard; CFD simulation; National identity in design; ANSYS Fluent software.
