IRUs are self-contained systems comprised of gyros and accelerometers that provide aircraft altitude (pitch, roll, and heading), position, and velocity information in response to signals resulting from inertial effects on system components. Once aligned with a known position, IRUs continuously calculate position and velocity. IRU position accuracy decays with time.  2, fiche 1, Anglais, - inertial%20reference%20unit
