The aerodynamics model aided navigation method hopefully becomes a new trend in the field of aircraft navigation. Through the survey and analysis of the method, the concept and the principle are explained. Three schemes including the aerodynamics model/inertial navigation integrated scheme, the aerodynamics model/satellite navigation integrated scheme, and the aerodynamics model/inertial/satellite navigation integrated scheme are analyzed. The
aerodynamics model aided navigation method is compared with several other aided navigation methods. The technical advantages and application prospects are analyzed and the further research directions are discussed. The aerodynamics model aided navigation method is closely related with the aerodynamics characteristics and the guidance, navigation, control(GNC) process, so the study of the method helps drive the development and deep integration of GNC.
