Well, there was the HRG (Hemispherical Resonator Gyro)which was touted
as a low cost replacement for the Litton and GM Carousel systems, but, as you rightly comment they were beaten out by IRUs with RLGs. The Boeing 777 has a unit called an ADIRU which comprises 3 IRUs and 3 ADCs in one unit with built in redundancy. GPS inputs to the Flight Management Function come from MMRs (Multi-Mode Receivers) which comprise VOR/ILS/MMR/GPS/Marker in one box. (There are three of these per aircraft). All very reliable compared to the 70s/80s type gear. |
