    Metal matrix composites (MMCs) have emerged as a transformational class of materials, demonstrating exceptional promise for increasing mechanical, thermal, and specialized characteristics across varied applications. This study gives a detailed assessment of current improvements in metal matrix reinforcements, concentrating on their effects, production processes, and applications. Particulate, fiber, and whisker reinforcements are examined for their influence on mechanical, thermal, and specialized characteristics. Various production processes, including solid-state fabrication and liquid-state fabrication, are examined. The evaluation focuses on applications in the aircraft and automotive industries. Addressing obstacles and future prospects in scalable manufacturing and innovative reinforcements, the article gives insights into the growing environment of metal matrix composites over the past years.
