Development of a new Inertial Navigation System (INS) is undertaken because of a change in the state of the art of some component in the existing systems. During the 1970s the Ring Laser Gyro (RLG) promised a quantum step improvement in performance over that of rotating wheel (iron gyro) inertial systems. This paper describes the development and evaluation of a strapdown RLG INS optimized for military use. A three-phased product development cycle will be described and test results will be presented. The increased utilization of digital microprocessor technology and elimination of analog/linear control circuits will be explored. Application of the core sensor assembly and digital electronics to DOD missile and aircraft navigation systems will be illustrated; and evolutionary development, including incorporation of VHSIC technology, will be discussed.
