The U.S. Transportation Command (TRANSCOM) has utilized artificial intelligence agents in a real-world operational capacity for the first time during Operation Epic Fury. These AI agents were employed to rapidly assess available airfields and logistical options when Spain closed its airspace and bases to U.S. aircraft supporting strikes on Iran in March. The AI tools helped TRANSCOM planners quickly identify alternative locations and optimize the movement of critical assets like refueling tankers, significantly reducing the time needed for complex logistical decisions.
