>ghetto guidance system
I've always wondered, are milspec INS sensors even any different from the cheap shits in modern cell phones?
Accelerometer & gyroscope sensors (and GNSS chips) are all mass produced in extreme numbers and cost pennies.
What's the difference between sensors in phones and guided ordnance? Data precision? Safe operating envelope? Nothing?

Ukies said in 2022 that if they can target Moscow they will shoot at Moscow (if valid targets are present).

Russians are aware of this and so they have pulled their AD from elsewhere to protect Moscow.

Which chips are used by weapon-grade INS systems?

For example my phone has ADXL343 ASIC for gyro/accel and it arguably has better specs than chips like MPU-6050 which are commonly used in larger robotics including UAVs.

"Milspec" doesn't mean it's "superior" spec. It means the components are guaranteed to work inside a fixed set of parameters. Operating temperatures, moisture, etc etc etc.
Your phone's ASIC is guaranteed to work within those but may very well do so.

You're still not saying anything of value that I didn't already know and mention.

Anyways, to me it seems that a $5 off-the-shelf chip can do anything a guided missile would need to know where it isn't.
- more than high enough sample rate for a PID that drives the rocket
- great deg/s and max g measuring ranges
- enough g resistance to survive rocket motor startup jolts
- very wide operating temperature range
- ready to interoperate with external sensors like magnetometers
- etc
If anything these mobile chips have a bunch of unnecessary extra features like low power pedometer mode and hand gesture recognition algos. But they're completely programmable for any task.
What else would it need? Maybe the sensors' precision/sensitivity aren't enough?

Sometimes there are subject experts present here in /k/, not just angry tards with nothing useful to say.

To me it seems real life concerns of reliability could be mitigated with redundant hardware. It's not like the mass or cost of extra sensors is prohibitive.

IMUs are not very accurate. If you ever worked with acceleration sensors, you know, that they are incredibly noisy. Using inertial sensors for positioning leads to drift, which means that they are only useful in combination with other methods.
High cost IMUs are simply more accurate. Even good hobbyist IMUs will easily cost hundreds of euros. Look up a picture of the ef-2000 IMU it is massive. This is needed to get good accuracy.
If you want to learn how inertial sensors work, read a book.

Drift over time. Phone sensors are only good for very short durations, like seconds to a few minutes max. Military gyros have to work for hours.
Take this SAAB gyro, the angle random walk is specified as less than 0.05 deg/sqrt(hour).
Compare that with the cheap gyro ADXRS642 from Analog Devices: it specifies a angle random walk of 0.02 deg/sqrt(second).

Hours vs seconds. That's a 3 orders of magnitude difference.

The expensive chips could even be the same as the cheap chips in different ins after testing. The cheap chips are technically capable, but when you're doing shit like this it usually works out cheaper to spend a bit more now on something you know will work. What happens if those missiles are put in storage, are those $5 chips guaranteed to be working in 5 years time? what's the failure rate?
cheap drones under $500? slap whatever SOC you want on them, they're cheap enough that the failure rate matters less

It depends on what issues you might face. Some of the stuff is easily solvable by redundant components, some other stuff would need creative logic around multi-sensor solutions, some crap isn't solvable by redundant sensors at all. Generally you can do a shit ton of stuff with COTS parts, basically do everything with them, but it would require creative engineers and agile iterations to solve all issues, which isn't really a thing in classic MIC.

And of course I am still correct. Hmm, yes I adjusted my statement when presented with new, reliable indicators that North Korean troops were involved. In 2025. That's called being truthful, learning, and scientific. Before that, all indicators were false. They were from unreliable sources and remain false. They don't become true simply because they did deploy troops there later. Of course, an anti-science meme repeater wouldn't understand the concept of time.

It's not the receivers that are rigged, it's the civilian satellites.
Can't bypass that with some kind of jail-broken black market GPS receiver.

GPS signals are also super fucking easy jam, because they're weak as fuck.
The Satellites orbit waaaaay higher than regular communications sats, so the signal has a long way to go before arriving on earth.
That means GPS can't be relied on as a means of guidance for cruise missiles striking high value targets, which are liable to be guarded with air defenses and GPS jammers.

specific stuff like patriots will remain a niche to be covered by patchworks but at the end of the day ballistic missiles aint cheap and cant be spammed like those sahsneeds have been

we don't need leverage we have the minerals deal and Europe has agreed to purchase our arms. we are now a net profit on this war which is the position Trump accused Putin of being in. so naturally ensuring Russia is a net negative is imperative for Ukraine. there is no disagreement here between us but you can well poison about this all you'd like cuck. you're fucking losing and being thrown a lifeline by the administration.

but Ukraine may not want to surrender so even with our support you still may have to return all that you have taken. should have accepted cease fire terms.

also fuck you for not doing that btw but it no longer matters. we will continue to sue for peace until you have no infrastructure remaining. then we will escalate. you still have time.

>y-you are brown Russian shill.

This is a strange take away from a post predominantly mocking Russian missiles but yes you've caught me I'm literally pic related. The issue isn't gyros and inertial navigation which are the bare minimum for any cruise missile made after 1948 the issue is if they can produce reliable TERCOM/TERNAV that massively improves accuracy with automatic position fixes using terrain maps and doppler radar.

Without TERCOM or unjammed GPS the missile's gyroscopes (even very accurate flat earther bamboozling laser ones) will start slowly drifting as soon as it is off the rail and over a 300 nautical mile flight it really adds up. That's why Russian cruise missiles without TERCOM like the AS-4 I shat on in my original post) end up landing on a jungle gym 2 miles from the target while western cruise missiles with TERCOM always magically land with 15 square metres of the aimpoint

while the russians killed a few people in Kiev with balistic missiles and drones, Ukis did this with a bunch of slow ass drones.
I don't think Russia is going to make it if those Ukrainian cruise missiles go hot.

Blowing up Monke's mansion isn't going to slow down Russian logistics, even if it would be very funny.
Blowing up anything oil related is basically the closest thing we can get to kicking monke directly in the economic nuts, Russia is basically just a giant run down gas station larping as a superpower and without that oil they cannot even feed their peasants.
