Odysight.ai Partners with XP Services for First US Flight Testing of its AI-Predictive Maintenance System on UH-60 Helicopter
Omer, Israel, March 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --Odysight.ai® Inc. (NASDAQ: ODYS), a leader in AI/ML-driven visual sensing solutions for predictive and conditions-based maintenance (CBM+), today announced a partnership with XP Services that is expected to result in the first U.S.-based installation of its system on an aircraft this spring. The milestone marks a substantial step in the Company’s U.S. growth strategy and formally initiates the flight testing of Odysight.ai solution.
Under the agreement, the system will be installed on a U.S.-operated UH-60 helicopter based in Tullahoma, Tennessee. The Company’s proprietary system integrates ruggedized visual sensors, embedded software, and AI-driven analytics to deliver continuous, real-time monitoring of critical components in hard-to-access areas. By converting visual data into actionable maintenance intelligence, the Company’s solution enhances flight safety, supports operational readiness, and reduces unscheduled downtime.
The initial deployment will focus on safety-critical elements, including flight control support components, hydraulic lines and reservoirs. Odysight.ai’s algorithms detect leaks, cracks, corrosion, misalignment, and other material condition. In partnership with XP Services’ flight test team, the system will undergo full flight testing, supporting future potential Supplemental Type Certification (STC) and Airworthiness Review (AWR).
“Bringing Odysight.ai’s solution onto a U.S.-operated aircraft is an important milestone in our U.S. commercialization strategy,” said Yehu Ofer, Chief Executive Officer of Odysight.ai. “XP Services’ flight-testing expertise and operational experience makes them a wonderful partner. We are thrilled with this partnership.”
Odysight.ai continues to expand its AI-powered visual analytics platform to transform predictive and condition-based maintenance across aviation, aerospace, and other mission-critical industries. This deployment represents a key step toward commercialization in the U.S. defense and aviation markets.
“XP Services is pleased to support Odysight.ai in its U.S. installation and flight evaluation of the system on a UH-60 aircraft. Our team brings extensive experience in aircraft modification, integration, and flight testing, and we look forward to helping advance this technology. Systems that improve visibility into aircraft condition have strong potential to enhance safety, readiness, and maintenance efficiency across the rotorcraft fleet.”said Rodney Allison, CEO, XP Services.
