Navy Adopts All Weather Navigation With Loran Aids
The Navy installs Loran receivers on combat ships, auxiliaries, and patrol planes boosting all weather navigation. Loran provides precise position in fog or storms, reduces hazards of celestial navigation, and supports routes to the Orient, Alaska, Hawaii, and Atlantic lanes. Coast Guard operates 32 stations, with shared air and sea lane coverage and joint use by Air Force and Navy aircraft.
