A brake cooling system of the present disclosure includes an external cooling apparatus located externally from an aircraft (e.g., available on the ground at the gate during parking of the aircraft). The external cooling apparatus is in electronic communication with the aircraft via a communication channel such that the external cooling apparatus receives live data from the aircraft for intelligent aircraft brake cooling. The live data includes measured brake temperature. The brake cooling system further includes a controller for collecting aircraft data and generating a cooling apparatus control signal.
