Smiths has worked closely with the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD) to evolve a single fusion and decision support platform for helicopters, aeroplanes and engines that can address a number of military needs: a need for an advanced diagnostics, prognostics, lifing and intelligent management platform; a need for generating concise prognostic information; a need for a fusion, mining and automatic trending platform; a need for an expandable verification platform open for 3rd party tools; a need for a platform providing diverse applications to a wide range of users; and a need for a flexible platform providing military applications/benefits during evolution.

The paper also presents the results obtained from applying the FUMStrade tools on MOD aircraft data
