FAA publicly debuts ASI-powered AI air-traffic management software
58 FOMOThe FAA introduced its new AI-enabled air-traffic management capabilities following its $875 million contract with ASI. The SMART system is designed to coordinate airline schedules, weather, airport capacity and flight trajectories, while FMDS provides the underlying traffic-management data infrastructure. The deployment represents a transition from contract award toward operational use in the National Airspace System.
Why it matters
Actual operational adoption is the critical proof point for ASI's largest aviation contract. The rollout's ability to reduce delays without disrupting airline scheduling or controller workflows will determine its broader value.
