_Manufacturer-supplied at the model level; not tied to an independently verified named-site deployment. Verification posture is product-showcase from the maker._

The attempt failed: the lander lost communication and crashed in the final descent. ispace's Mission 2 'Resilience' (June 2025) also crashed. The autonomous-landing framing is the maker's; both attempts ended in loss of the vehicle.
