Maybe this is why the Russians keep flying their planes over other countries' borders and then denying they have done so.
They are using hand held gps systems in their planes - just like the kit you can buy on any high street electrics shop.
They are temperamental at the best of times but try using one while flying a plane in combat along a border.
No one wonder the Russian pilots keep making such elementary navigational errors causing them to be shot down by ground fire when they invade another country's airspace.
It would be funny if it wasn't so dangerous.
I hear the rubber band they use to hold them in place is made of military grade rubber though - it is at least a nice shade of blue.
