Viper to Get New Nav System:
The Air Force has chosen Northrop Grumman’s LN-260 fiber optic gyro inertial navigation system for an avionics upgrade for the F-16 Multinational Fighter Program. Northrop officials say that tests conducted earlier this year demonstrated that the new INS provides “greatly reduced target location errors” and enhanced imagery.
Current and near-term Chinese artificial intelligence capabilities could counter or replicate how the U.S. military plans and conducts operations, especially complex strike packages such as those seen recently in Iran, according to a new think tank report.
