“…To meet the extreme and ever-changing processing demands of modern fighter aircraft, the mission computer requires performing like pilot's associate /co-pilot in the cockpit. Figure 1 depicts the evolution of mission computing over its 50-year lifespan 1 . Sensor capability and complexity drive mission demands which in turn drive the mission computer performance requirements.…”

Increasing the complexity of fighter aircraft like modern cockpit environments, covering highly integrated, and complex automatic functions, pose various demands on the crew and adding a heavy workload. Cognitive systems appear to be a promising approach to overcome these deficiencies in future combat aircraft. Developing humancentered automation and designing advanced technology that will capitalize on the relative strengths of humans and machines, are key to the success. This paper presents the approach of applying the artificial intelligence (AI) techniques in the critical mission computer (MC). The mission computer is the central controller of the entire avionics and acts as the front end to the pilot and all other avionic systems by providing all the sensors information, presenting the pilot-vehicle interface and thereby helping a lot in reducing the heavy workload of the pilot. Hence cognitive processing in the MC will make MC to act as an electronic crew assistant sharing the workload of the pilot and helping him in severe situations. Intricate aircraft systems increase the need for intelligent cooperation between pilots and aircraft which will be fulfilled by making the MC as smart or intelligent MC.Keywords: Artificial intelligence, expert system, knowledge base, cognitive process
