USAF will soon use digital avionics in future generations of new aircraft. Two actions expected by mid-July are: Selection of standard characteristics for digital multiplexing (MUX) systems and iniatition of Digital Avionics Information System (DAIS) program. Heart of DAIS is a MUX system to replace conventional wire-bundles for the bulk of signals transferred from one location in an aircraft to another. Advantages are significant weight saving and flexibility to accomodate changes in avionic subsystems without time and expense of rewiring the aircraft.
