In regards to Robert Down's observation on GPS drop-outs, be aware that on our military combat aircraft GPS merely feeds the inertial navigation system and updates it rather than being the only source of navigational info.

When you are upside down with jamming going on and missiles being fired at you, you can't depend solely on GPS.
