A turbine engine has: a compressor (30); a combustor (32); a turbine (34), a gas flowpath (52) passing consecutively through the compressor (30), combustor (32), and turbine (34); and inlet member (140) along the gas flowpath (502) upstream of the compressor (30). The inlet member (140) includes the unitarily-formed single piece combination of: a three dimensional (3D) lattice portion (260); and a nose cap body (202) surrounding the lattice portion (260).
