North Pole Flight Command has informed us that they are now testing version 4 of Santa’s sleigh and that a fleet of 12 sleighs of this version have been ordered for test flights later this month.

This new version will be equipped with a new AI-enhanced device known as the Believer Information System.

Elf Buck Sanchez, flight director at the North Pole Sleigh Port, said the new device will coordinate information about any believer and their home that Santa may be approaching as he flies on Christmas Eve.

“When Santa gets to your neighborhood the screen on his dash will give Santa a lot of information,” Elf Buck explained. “Not only will he see a map which is GPS synchronized to the area but he will see your picture, as well as pictures of other believers in your home. On the heads up display Santa will have access to all the data tracker elves have compiled in advance of Santa’s flight, including roof and chimney information. Wish lists and even scanned letters to Santa will be available at the touch of a button or even a command of Santa’s voice.”
