Description

ABSTRACT: CDI is proposing a tactical OIRU design based on a modified production IMU combined with our LOS/INS module.The combination of production IMU hardware in a compact OIRU design, tailored to the tactical vibration environment, provides a competitive OIRU design on a $/rejected jitter basis.; BENEFIT: The anticipated benefit to the Airforce is that CDI's tactical OIRU will enable precision pointing and micro-radian stabilization using IMU technology currently in production. This will provide a near term OIRU that will perform reliably in the most severe tactical base motion environments. The implementation of a OIRU and an integrated INS eliminates the need for an external GPS/INS, reducing beam director implementation costs substantially.
