GE Aerospace continued product and future-of-flight investments, increasing total engineering investments year-over-year for both company and partner-funded programs. The company completed certification of the LEAP 1-B durability kit (including an upgraded HPT blade) expected to approximately double time-on-wing for that engine. It is advancing next-generation concepts via a Singapore airport RISE test bed focused on Open Fan and completed ground tests for a megawatt-class hybrid electric demonstrator under NASA's Electrified Powertrain Flight Demonstration. These initiatives support durability and efficiency improvements on LEAP/GENx and exploration of Open Fan and hybrid-electric technologies.
