On most units from the USA...

...GPS is included for the very purpose of providing useful accurate position data, so the avionics function as intended.

To those that fit equipment that do not include GPS...the question must be asked, why not?

Could it be the old 'distrust' of the USA controlling the GPS signal(s)?

The country in question controls the VOR, do they not?
