Uptake will provide a suite of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) software, which can help in gaining actionable insights at a component level.
Raytheon’s Intelligence, Information and Services business vice-president Matt Gilligan said: “Commanders should have data-driven confidence that the vehicles chosen for a critical operation are not trending toward an issue right when it matters the most.
“These kinds of decisions don’t just save dollars and ensure mission success, they save lives.”
Currently, decisions taken on maintenance and logistics are either based on events or driven by a timeline. However, militaries are increasingly using advanced data analytics and condition-based monitoring so that they can quickly identify problems and accordingly alert personnel in advance.
