Ideal for virtually any platform, the system offers a compact design, continuous heading and pointing data output, and a flexible architecture that allows it to function as either a standalone navigation module or as the heart of an expanded, multifunctional TACNAV system. With its precision fiber optic gyro (FOG) and an optional compass sensor providing a complete backup to GPS, the TACNAV II can integrate with a host of applications, including navigation and data consolidation for Battle Management Systems (BMS).
