Artificial intelligence (AI) changes strategies for B-2 and F-35 combat aircraft
WASHINGTON – Attack missions, targeting, and combat data-sharing in an F-35 or B-2 combat jet are transforming quickly because of rapid integration of emerging artificial intelligence (AI) systems, leading the U.S. Air Force to adjust tactics and adapt future war strategies.

The Military & Aerospace Electronics take:
24 April 2019 -- Faster computer processors, AI-infused algorithms able to fuse sensor information, and automated maintenance and checklists are influencing emerging pilot tactics to anticipate future threat environments.
For the F-35 and B-2 stealth combat aircraft, AI enables rapid database access, organizing information, and high-volume procedural functions. Algorithms, for example, increasingly are able to scan, view, and organize targeting, navigation, radar warning, images, and video.
AI now perform a wide range of combat aircraft functions; computer algorithms can access, compare, and organize vast pools of data for human decision-makers. This level of machine automation frees humans to pursue interpretive or conceptual work.
