The US Air Force is using artificial intelligence to transform aircraft maintenance through MetroStar Systems’ Iris platform, which is being introduced at Travis Air Force Base.Designed to support aircraft maintainers in demanding environments, Iris acts as a digital assistant that provides technical guidance, connects experts remotely, and automatically organizes maintenance information.Technicians can access repair instructions instantly while working on aircraft, reducing delays and improving efficiency. Remote specialists can also provide real-time assistance through video connectivity during complex maintenance tasks.The adoption of Iris demonstrates the Air Force’s commitment to using advanced digital technologies to reduce downtime, improve maintenance quality, and strengthen mission readiness.
