The French Ministry of Armed Forces’ Defense Innovation Agency (AID) announced significant progress in developing its VISION project, a navigation system that relies on stargazing to guide aircraft. 

Initially launched in 2016, the project aims to provide precise, autonomous navigation for military vehicles without relying on vulnerable satellite signals (GPS or Galileo). 

Safran Electronics & Defense and Sodern lead the project, with Safran overseeing the navigation function and Sodern developing the stargazing capability.
