Can one jam normal accelerometers? I don't see how.
- yjftsjthsd-h 5y agoI think it's rather that normal accelerometers aren't precise enough to replace GPS (well, radio/satellite based positioning systems), which are possible to jam.
- naniwaduni 5y agoNormal guidance systems, which rely on non-accelerometer input, are vulnerable to external jamming.
- cabalamat 5y agoCertainly GPS is, but I don't see how inertial or celestial are.
- sandworm101 5y agoCelestisl is impractical for modern weapons. INS just isnt accurate enough over long periods (think of subs submerged for months).
