Why not instead a "modern" digital sextant consisting of a digital camera and software. Still enables navigation by the stars (or sun) as a backup to GPS without having to spend thousands of man-hours training cadets to do it manually. And while not as accurate as GPS certainly, it would most likely be better than or at least equal to the best human navigators. You'd harden the system against EMP which is probably a standard requirement of military electronics anyway (I'd hope...) |
