La Vought Aero Products Division (APD) du groupe LTV est l'une des sociétés participant aux programmes portant sur ces "usines de l'avenir". En juillet 1984, elle a mis en service une "cellule d'usinage souple" (CUS) commandée par ordinateur pour la fabrication des pièces des tronçons arrière et intermédiaire arrière du fuselage du bombardier B-1B (...) Le système devait permettre à la fois une utilisation poussée des machines, une programmation souple autorisant des lots de production éventuellement réduits à l'unité, un fonctionnement sans surveillance, la manutention automatique des matériaux, l'inspection automatique des pièces finies et la commande par ordinateur de l'échelonnement des opérations dans la cellule d'usinage.
