Abstract :
Information on the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Gyro under development by Northrop Grumman Corporation is presented. The basics of Operation are summarized, a review of the completed phases is presented, and the current state of development and progress in phase 4 is discussed. Many details have been left out for the sake of brevity, but the principles are still complete.
