1. A line-replaceable-unit configured for installation in an aircraft comprising:

  • a memory;

    at least one processor; and

    at least one module operable by the at least one processor to;

    during flight operations of the aircraft, automatically collect operational data specific to the line-replaceable-unit, the operational data including information associated with one or more single event upsets detected by the line-replaceable unit;

    store the operational data at the memory;

    responsive to determining that the aircraft has landed, automatically establish a communication session with a ground station; and

    automatically output, to a ground station, the operational data via the communication session for subsequent transmission to a remote computing system configured to predict, based on the operational data, one or more failure conditions associated with the line-replaceable-unit.
