The Geonyx from Safran Electronics & Defense are Inertial Navigation Systems (INSs) designed for time-sensitive missions and demanding artillery systems such as howitzers, multiple rocket launchers, mortars, and light guns. They support on-the-move alignment and autonomous navigation of systems without the aid of GNSS along with multiple rounds simultaneous impact (MRSI) capability. These INSs employ a Gyro technology-based HRG crystal that offers reliable timing synchronization. They have a positioning accuracy of up to 0.15% (horizontal and vertical) and an alignment time of less than 5 min (static) & 10 min (on-the-move).
The Geonyx incorporate jamming, spoofing and meaconing algorithms with NavWar option, making these systems ideal for mobile radars and forward observer systems. Using the NavWar feature, these inertial navigation systems can automatically stop GPS hybridization following threat detection on GNSS signal reception. They can be remotely controlled using RS422, Ethernet, and CANBus interfaces. These systems consume less than 17 W of power. They are available in enclosures measuring 205 x 158 x 169 mm and 245 x 158 x 169 mm. These INSs comply with MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-1275, and MIL-STD-461 standards.
