By modeling the future of a fleet through the entire lifecycle of an asset, Aerogility’s model-based AI technology will equip AERALIS with insights into forecasting, planning, risk management and strategic decision-making as it designs its modular military aircraft system.

Applying advanced digital simulation twin AI to create a digital replica of the fleet whilst in the aircraft design stage, Aerogility will help AERALIS plan for the future of the fleet as the company continues with the rapid development of its aircraft. 

Gary Vickers, CEO of Aerogility, says: “Our collaboration with AERALIS goes beyond conventional fleet planning. Together, we are creating a Platform and Fleet Availability Model, which will influence the design of AERALIS’ support system and platform architecture. The model will enable AERALIS to set baseline availability and a through-life cost model to credibly deliver on its promises of reduced through-life costs and increased fleet availability.” 

AERALIS’ modular military aircraft system will feature open-architecture avionics, a common fuselage, interchangeable outer wings, and centreline engine nacelles. Underpinned by a digital enterprise and certification framework, AERALIS supports both crewed and uncrewed defense aviation missions, all while significantly reducing costs across development, production, training, and maintenance.

Mark Williams, Availability Director at AERALIS, says: “Aerogility’s AI capabilities are instrumental in our ability to shape future fleet planning and optimize the support and upgrade processes of our modular system. With the insights afforded by Aerogility, we can deliver greater mission versatility while reducing operational costs, making our aircraft system a highly flexible and cost-effective solution for modern defense needs.”
