GE Aerospace has expanded its investment in AI technology, utilizing it in various applications within the aerospace sector. Meanwhile, Lilium has reached a significant stage in electric propulsion testing for their eVTOL aircraft, utilizing a dedicated lab in Germany for ground tests. The U.S. Air Force has shown support for Wright's work on developing rechargeable thermal batteries, potentially for use in military uncrewed air vehicles. Additionally, FAA has validated the engines powering the Citation Ascend, following approval from Transport Canada. Moya has shifted to hybrid-electric propulsion for their autonomous eVTOL aircraft, designed for tasks like cargo deliveries. Certification testing for the GE Catalyst Turbine is on track for completion by the end of the year. Furthermore, H3 Dynamics is set to supply hydrogen fuel cells for the Lyte VTOL Aircraft and assist in the installation of hydrogen electrolyzers at airports to produce fuel. GKN is collaborating with Vaeridion and H55 to develop electric aircraft wiring for a nine-passenger 'Microliner' aircraft aimed at connecting smaller cities.
