Who we serve
US Air Force
At Aptima, we’re preparing our Airmen to meet the demands of rapidly evolving threats by creating technologies that help them learn, adapt, and make critical decisions at speed. By uniting human performance with the Air Force’s most advanced capabilities, we ensure Airmen can sustain the strategic advantages our nation depends on.
Explore our solutions designed for the modern Air Force
Get faster insights and higher-quality feedback with White Cell In A Box.
White Cell In A Box unifies multiple Aptima solutions (PETS, LNCS, SPOTLITE®, and SIMMD®) into a portable, data-driven assessment and AAR capability. It captures objective performance metrics, synchronizes multi-system mission playback, digitizes observer and team evaluations, and assesses simulator training effectiveness, all in one deployable package.
By bringing these capabilities together, White Cell In A Box gives training leaders faster insight, higher-quality feedback, and clearer evidence of performance across live, virtual, constructive, and simulator-based environments.
Strengthen battlespace awareness with SANDMAN.
SANDMAN is a generative-AI system that transforms complex movement and geospatial data into structured insights and readable narratives. Using graph neural networks and anomaly detection, it identifies patterns, highlights points of interest, and provides Airmen with mission-ready summaries — reducing analytic workload and improving situational understanding.
Advance multi-domain simulation and integration with MSIL.
The Modeling and Simulation Integration Lab (MSIL), established with support from the Department of the Air Force Chief Modeling and Simulation Office, provides a multi-fidelity, multi-domain, human-in-the-loop environment for testing and evaluation. It improves interoperability across simulation environments, strengthens human-machine teaming experimentation, and accelerates technology transition to programs of record and operational units.
Predict adversary behavior with PALADIN.
PALADIN is an AI-driven forecasting tool that transforms multimodal threat data into clear predictions of Red Force actions. By automating behavior modeling and generating machine-assisted course of action insights, PALADIN reduces analyst burden and enhances decision quality across the air tasking cycle.
Monitor cognitive readiness and pilot safety with fORE.
The fNIRS Operational Readiness Estimation (fORE) suite integrates the MAVERIC fNIRS sensor with advanced analytics and an AI-enabled decision support platform. It monitors neural, physiological, and cognitive indicators in real time — delivering actionable assessments that improve safety, performance, and training effectiveness for pilots and aircrew.
