Since 2021, Airbus and iXblue have teamed up to develop the Astrix 200+, with the support of CNES. The Astrix 200+ will be the new member of the Astrix family of gyros that has demonstrated more than 6 000 000 hours of cumulated flight in-orbit without anomaly.
The development investigates the current state-of-the-art of the technology to break through the current model limitations, define a new design and qualify by 2026 the highest performance space gyro yet to come.
The talk will present the main target performance and the comprehensive development plan set up to achieve qualification. It will also discuss the foreseen applications for this equipment.
