HORIZON-JU-CLEAN-AVIATION-2026-04-FTA-03 - Advanced noise-reducing technologies for propulsion systems of next generation Ultra-efficient SMR aircraft

Expected Outcome:Development and demonstration of advanced noise-reducing and lightweight technologies for UHBR propulsion systems on the Ultra-Efficient SMR aircraft concept. The topic aims to mature distortion-tolerant fan and intake solutions supported by improved and validated aero-acoustic modelling to TRL5 with an aim to achieve cumulative noise reduction and structural weight benefits. See the topic description document published with this call for full details.
