Which of the following is not a function of the navigation system in SUAS?

The navigation system in Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (SUAS) plays a critical role in ensuring safe and effective operation. Each of the listed functions contributes to the overall navigational capabilities of a SUAS, except for one.

Flight interception is not typically a function of the navigation system in SUAS. This term usually refers to the technique used in manned aviation or military applications, where one aircraft approaches another to engage or monitor it. In the context of SUAS, the focus is more on autonomous operations, route planning, and positioning rather than interception of other aircraft.

In contrast, coordination and tracking ensure that the SUAS can maintain its intended flight path and adapt to dynamic conditions, route planning involves setting a path before the flight based on the mission requirements, and GPS positioning is essential for the accurate determination of the UAV's location in order to navigate effectively. These functions are integral to the navigation system's role in SUAS operations.
