LEAP 71 has successfully test-fired a 20kN liquid methane rocket engine designed autonomously by its Noyron AI model. Manufactured in copper alloy in just three weeks, the engine achieved 93% combustion efficiency without human-led design iterations. This shift from manual CAD to physics-based computational engineering collapses development cycles from years to weeks. Generating flight-ready hardware directly from performance data signals a systemic move toward autonomous aerospace manufactur...
