Israel Establishes Center to Develop Non-GPS Navigation Tech

The Israel Ministry of Defense (IMOD)'s Directorate of Defense Research and Development (DDR&D) and Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) inaugurated a new center established to develop non-GPS accurate navigation technology.

The new navigation technology center has been set up at TAMAM, IAI's electro-optics and navigation house in IAI's Systems Missiles & Space Group. In the new center, IAI will develop and manufacture inertial sensors. These sensors will enable the production of next-generation navigation systems, and will significantly increase their performance and capabilities.

The innovative navigation sensor technology is founded on unique Israeli innovation based on years of research and collaboration between DDR&D and IAI. These sensors will be implemented in various operational systems within Israel's defense systems, thus enabling Israel to maintain its qualitative advantage.

    Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics to build their own rocket motors

    Aug 13 (Reuters) - Lockheed Martin said on Tuesday it had signed an agreement with peer General Dynamics to build solid rocket motors, which propel missiles, amid surging demand driven by conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East. Efforts to replenish U.S. inventory are also driving the global demand for missiles and a shortage of rocket motors could pressure production. https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/lockheed-martin-general-dynamics-announce-pact-build-rocket-motors-2024-08-13/
