Large Scale Condition Monitoring for F-18 Readiness and Safety

US Navy

When physiological events (PEs) in naval aviators surged in 2017, the US Navy launched a multi-year investigation to determine the root cause. Using enDAQ sensors in their F/A-18s, the Navy was able to record and analyze vast amounts of pressure data to catch problems in F/A-18 Environmental Control Systems that caused PEs before they occurred, ensuring pilot safety and aircraft readiness. Every F/A-18 flight now records pressure with enDAQ sensors; over 2,000 sensors are in active circulation within the Navy for this purpose.
