The use of star navigation will allow you to bypass the blocking of the Global Positioning System (GPS) by potential US adversaries like Russia and China, writes the American magazine Popular Mechanics.

The publication, calling the use instead of GPS navigation on the stars (and satellites, for example, Starlink spacecraft) "Plan B", claims, in particular, that the promising strategic bomber B-21 Raider of the Air Force (Air Force) The United States will receive an improved system of astronomical navigation.

The magazine notes that astrogation is currently less accurate than GPS, and, recalling the capabilities of the Cold War-era SM-62 Snark cruise missile, writes that "when you deliver a 3.8-megaton nuclear warhead, you don't need any special navigational excesses."

In March, the publication reported that the promising low-visibility strategic bomber B-21 Raider will become a "killer" of the Russian air defense systems (air defense) S-400 "Triumph" and Chinese fifth-generation J-20 fighters.

In January, the magazine said that Northrop Grumman's B-21 Raider bomber could become the" coolest " aircraft in the world.
