Not at all relevant, but the S-67 Blackhawk as upgraded for the European/Middle East Demo tour featured a version of the Litton inertial ( from the Army OV-1B Side-looking-radar aircraft. Same cockpit control panel ). Also ran the moving map display from the USAF A-7 and the computed impact calculation for the three barreled GE 20mm Vulcan version and Head-up display (from Norden F-111). Pretty cool for 1972. Internally funded. Almost forgot-the ECS kept the 6 seated persons in the cabin behind the cockpit cool. I rode back there from Kharg Island back to Tehran. Relaxed with a book-good smooth ride.
