pyrophoric metal (iron) foil that reacts 

with oxygen to generate infrared energy. 

The M211 decoys are dispersed from an 

aircraft to be used as a decoy in 

combination with the currently fielded 

M206 and M212 countermeasure flares 

to protect against advanced air-to-air 

and surface-to-air missile threats. 

i. Embedded Global Positioning 

System (GPS)/Inertial Navigation 

System (INS) (EGI) with Multi-Mode 

Receiver (MMR) uses GPS satellite 

signals to correct or calibrate a solution 

for precise positioning from an Inertial 

Navigation System (INS). The aircraft 

has two EGIs with MMR which use 

internal accelerometers, rate gyro 

measurements, and external sensor 

measurements to estimate the aircraft 

state, provides aircraft flight and 

position data to aircraft systems. The 

EGI is a velocity-aided, strap down, ring 

laser gyro based inertial unit. The EGI 

unit houses a GPS receiver. The receiver 

is capable of operating in either nonencrypted or encrypted. When keyed, 

the GPS receiver will automatically use 

anti-spoof/jam capabilities when they 

are in use. The EGI will retain the key 

through power on/off/on cycles. 

Because of safeguards built into the EGI, 

it is not considered classified when 

keyed. Integrated within the EGI is an 

Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) for 

processing functions. Each EGI also 

houses a Multi-Mode Receiver (MMR).
