Just around the corner? Probably not. There are no remotely efficient algorithms for computing Navier Stokes numerically. Computing power available has increased a thousandfold since they started using CFD.
It would be groundbreaking if someone figured out even an O(exp(n)) time way to do this, so I heard.
Considering the expense of building wind tunnels and supercomputers, it might be better to just give a few hundred million in grants to PDE and numerical analysis researchers. That would be a *lot* of funding. For better or for worse, academic mathematicians are pretty cheap.
