Somewhat time related. The Navy realizes that GPS might not always
work. I don't imagine that aircraft in the US Air Force will be able to
do this very reliably, and the article doesn't mention that service.
I'm guessing that a lot of strategic Air Force aircraft have star
trackers that will work some of the time w/o GPS (at night).
