Using latest fluid simulation on Computers, they claim significant progress for that CFM open fan RISE model. I understand tdracer in being sceptical until proved in reality. I picked up that flight test is scheduled for 2026 on A380.

To my surprise, NASA Boeing X-66A will be using the same engine, according to a publication on Aero Time from June 23. Design draft pix showed conventional Turbofans, so I don't know what's going to happen there.
