Predictive Maintenance
At the Edge
FlightEdge delivers real-time AI-powered failure prediction for tactical aviation—where connectivity cannot follow.
Cloud-Dependent Systems
Can't Fly Combat
Model Bias
Centralized models trained on fleet-wide data fail to capture platform-specific degradation patterns, leading to missed failures and false alarms.
High Latency
Round-trip data transmission to cloud infrastructure introduces unacceptable delays for time-critical maintenance decisions in contested environments.
Excessive Costs
Continuous telemetry streaming generates substantial recurring cloud costs that scale poorly across the tactical aviation fleet.
These constraints result in reactive maintenance, increased unscheduled downtime, and reduced fleet readiness—directly impacting sortie generation rates.
Edge-Native AI That
Operates Anywhere
Purpose-built for disconnected, denied, and austere environments
Edge-Native Inference
ML models execute directly on embedded hardware, delivering sub-second Remaining Useful Life (RUL) predictions without network connectivity.
Real-Time Drift Detection
Alibi Detect monitors incoming sensor streams against training baselines, automatically triggering model fallback when PSI/KL thresholds are exceeded.
Explainable AI
SHAP-based feature importance explanations enable maintainers to understand why predictions are made, building trust and supporting informed decision-making.
Air-Gapped Security
Three-zone architecture with hardware data diode ensures zero data exfiltration. Keycloak SSO with CAC/PIV authentication enforces role-based access control.
Platform-Specific Tuning
Katib hyperparameter optimization on platform-specific data eliminates fleet-wide model bias that plagues centralized systems.
Actionable Intelligence
Transform raw sensor telemetry into maintenance decisions—not dashboards full of data nobody can act on.
