La centrale à inertie est un appareil de mesure du positionnement très utilisé en raison de son autonomie et de sa faible sensibilité aux perturbations externes. On en trouve à bord des avions de ligne, des sous-marins, ou des missiles intercontinentaux. Elle est aujourd'hui souvent couplé à un GPS : ce système hybride permet de réduire les erreurs, et donc d'améliorer la qualité de la mesure. 4, record 1, French, - centrale%20inertielle%20d%27avion
