The first 7075 was developed in secret by a Japanese company, Sumitomo Metal, in 1935, [3] but reverse engineered by Alcoa in 1943, after examining a captured Japanese aircraft. [4] 7075 was standardized for aerospace use in 1945. [5] 7075 was eventually used for airframe production in the Imperial Japanese Navy.
6082 aluminium alloy is an alloy in the wrought aluminium-magnesium-silicon family (6000 or 6xxx series). It is one of the more popular alloys in its series (alongside alloys 6005 , 6061 , and 6063 ), although it is not strongly featured in ASTM (North American) standards.

Duralumin was developed by the German metallurgist Alfred Wilm at private military-industrial laboratory Zentralstelle für wissenschaftlich-technische Untersuchungen [] (Center for Scientific-Technical Research) in Neubabelsberg.
Aluminium–copper alloys (AlCu) are aluminium alloys that consist largely of aluminium (Al) and traces of copper (Cu) as the main alloying elements.Important grades also contain additives of magnesium, iron, nickel and silicon (AlCu(Mg, Fe, Ni, Si)), often manganese is also included to increase strength (see aluminium-manganese alloys).
Aluminium brass is a technically rather uncommon term for high-strength and partly seawater-resistant copper-zinc cast and wrought alloys with 55–66% copper, up to 7% aluminium, up to 4.5% iron, and 5% manganese.
Aluminium–silicon alloys or Silumin is a general name for a group of lightweight, high-strength aluminium alloys based on an aluminum–silicon system (AlSi) that consist predominantly of aluminum - with silicon as the quantitatively most important alloying element.
7068 alloy is a 7000 series aluminium-zinc alloy registered with the US Aluminium Association and produced to AMS 4331 (chemical composition and mechanical properties) and AMS 2772 (heat treatment). 7068 alloy ‘A’ and ‘B’ tensile data and fatigue properties have been ratified for inclusion in MIL Handbook 5 / MMPDS.
