A reasonable question! From my experience with general and professional aviators, the answer is a tentative "No" for quite a while. It would likely start out as an "Experimental" certification by the FAA[1]. Following that, I'm not sure what the course would be to official production for purchase (though Experimental planes can be purchasd on the free market to my knowledge).
