HAL orders 107 Sigma 95 navigation systems kits for Indian Air Force

[thestringshredder]

Indian aircraft manufacturer Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) has ordered 107 Sigma 95 navigation systems kits from Sagem (Safran) for the Indian Air Force’s combat aircraft.

Developed and produced by Sagem, Sigma 95 is an autonomous hybrid inertial navigation system combining laser gyros and GPS/Glonass* satellite navigation. It ensures high-precision navigation and broad operational flexibility for both combat and special-mission aircraft.

Two-thirds of the systems in this order will be manufactured in India by HAL, further cementing the partnership agreement on navigation systems signed by Sagem and Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd.

Sagem is a leading supplier of inertial navigation systems for Indian combat aircraft, warships and weapon systems. Nearly 500 combat aircraft deployed by the Indian air force and navy are now fitted with Sagem equipment. The systems in this latest order will join the Sigma 95 systems already in service on India’s combat aircraft.

Produced in Sagem’s Montluçon plant in the Auvergne region of south-central France, Sagem’s navigation systems are deployed on some of the world’s latest miliary aircraft, including the Rafale fighter, A400M military transport, NH90 helicopter and EC725 Caracal helicopters used by special forces.

Besides,every Indian missile makes use of RLG-INS developed by RCI (Research Centre Imarat).

Welcome back. Nice to know you have not got rid of foot in the mouth syndrome. The device is INS, better known as inertial navigation. Not GPS.

Its not "foot in mouth disease" but "Hoof in mouth disease" that is apparent.

Anyway, the indications are that French-origin equipment are getting a 'larger foot-print' in the Indian Armed Forces than earlier.

Yes we don't make high precision satelite navigation system such like sigma-95 but ,

My foot in mouth syndrome is better than your "**** in the head" reality. Back to topic, whether that device is a GPS or INS (OP does not specifically mention the type) instead of answering the question, you resorted to the normal trolling you are known for.
