The US Army’s 11th Airborne Division deployed Gallatin AI’s Navigator platform to forecast supply needs and identify logistics risks during Exercise Yama Sakura 91 in Japan.
Throughout the two-week exercise, the platform gave division staff an AI-assisted view of critical supply requirements, equipment and personnel readiness, and available combat power.
This allowed sustainment teams to assess whether operational plans could be supported and compare the logistics risks associated with different courses of action.
Navigator is built on an open architecture that allows it to work with US, allied, and partner systems, including the Maven Smart System, without relying on proprietary hardware.
Gallatin said this interoperability enables the platform to support combined operations across organizations, military echelons, and national boundaries.
From Battalion to Division
Yama Sakura 91 is a trilateral command-post exercise involving US, Japanese, and Australian forces, with a focus on improving readiness and interoperability.
The exercise marked the first time the 11th Airborne Division used Navigator at the division level to inform decision-making at the corps echelon.
Its 17th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion had previously used the platform during Joint Pacific Multinational Readiness Center 26-02 in February.
