The Integrated Operational Data Network (ODIN) has advantages over the Autonomous Logistics Information System (ALIS), [...] Breaking Defense reports, referring to the Pentagon.

The publication reminds that currently the fifth-generation F-35 Lightning II fighters receive ODIN instead of ALIS. According to the US Department of Defense, the basic ODIN kit is 30 percent cheaper, 75 percent smaller and 90 percent lighter than that in the case of ALIS. One of the main differences between the first and the second is the use of cloud technologies in ODIN, which allow developers to quickly add software updates. The disadvantages of the new system are its greater openness, which theoretically increases the risks of unauthorized access.

The publication notes that it is likely that the United States and the United Kingdom will gain advantages in using ODIN over other "staunch allies". "While the secret parts of the device [fighter] of each country are classified, it has long been suspected that the US and UK aircraft have capabilities that other countries cannot boast of. And giving other countries the opportunity to view data on the planning, flight and maintenance of your aircraft may be excessive even for loyal allies, " the publication writes.

In January 2020, Reuters reported that the ALIS of the F-35 Lightning II fighter will be replaced by ODIN. The reason for replacing ALIS is called numerous problems with implementation, concerning, in particular, compatibility and excessive complexity of software operation. ODIN, like ALIS, will provide, in particular, operational information on the technical condition and combat effectiveness of the fighter, as well as logistical data on access to components for its maintenance and repair.
