Lockheed Martin and Virginia-based IT services company MANTECH have signed a strategic teaming agreement aimed at transforming how the US military maintains and sustains its combat aircraft through the use of artificial intelligence (AI).
The collaboration centers on real-time monitoring of aircraft performance, predictive maintenance capabilities, and intelligent logistics planning, with defense-grade cybersecurity and data protection embedded throughout the system architecture.
By leveraging AI to process and analyze vast volumes of aircraft data, the initiative is designed to minimize aircraft downtime, extend service life, and enhance overall mission readiness across military aviation fleets.
