Hindustan Aeronautics is to manufacture and maintain high-performance navigation systems in India under a technology transfer agreement with Sagem of France.

The Sagem product is the Sigma 95N laser gyro navigation system, which is deployed on Indian Air Force and Navy combat aircraft, including the Hawk, Jaguar, Tejas, MiG-29 and -27 and Su-30 platforms.

"Sagem has further consolidated its partnership with the Indian aerospace industry through this agreement," Sagem said. "According to the terms of this agreement, HAL will be able to produce SIGMA 95 units for the Indian Air Force, and also provide "level 3" front line maintenance."

The SIGMA 95 is an autonomous, hybrid laser gyro inertial/GPS-Glonass navigation system that can provide navigation even in areas without GPS signal availability.

Sagem laser gyro navigation systems are used on the latest military aircraft in France, including Rafale and Mirage 2000 fighters, Airbus' A400M Atlas transport, and the Airbus Helicopters NH90 and EC725 Caracal helicopters.
