GPS (Global Positioning System) which is widely used for tracking and monitoring any object and finding the position or location of any vehicle is mostly not used by Asian armies.
USA is the main reason behind this because GPS is controlled by it. As we know that GPS is basically a satellite navigation system which find the exact location of any object (having GPS enable device) easily up to very accurate margin with the help of 24 satellites. All are the US satellites."We can't trust upon United States during War and any other operation because GPS is completely controlled by US.They may provide wrong information during such conditions to us because having diplomatic relations to other countries. So we used old techniques like compass to know our position" Said an army officer.
GPS was officially build for military uses in United States since 1973 and completed in 1994. Later it was openly used world wide.GPS enabled mobiles are common now a days.
Now other countries are also trying to build their own navigation system.Russia already started a project upon this. European union and china is also trying to start projects in this direction to make their security more perfect.
