The US Air Force is partnering with industry and academia on a multi-phase CTMA initiative to fully integrate the B-1 Lancer into a digital engineering environment. This initiative will use the B-1 Lancer to provide a methodology that exemplifies how to build detailed digital twins for legacy vehicles where significant technical data is missing. Phase II will build on the successes of the earlier phase and complete the development and validation of an integrated digital twin, combining structural components, systems components into a single source of truth.
