First, according to the navigation velocity rate equation, double-vector observations were derived, and the Request algorithm was introduced for the initial attitude estimation. Then, error analysis was discussed, which puts forward a large acceleration change for the in-flight alignment. Simulation experiment analyzed and discussed the effectiveness of the proposed large acceleration change for the in-flight alignment. The simulation result indicated that the in-flight alignment can be achieved quickly, and the heading misalignment error is about 0.3กใ, the pitch and rolling misalignment errors are less than 0.2กใ %K Micro Inertial Navigation System (MINS) %K large acceleration change %K guided projectile %K in-flight alignment %K attitude determination %U https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0142331218811468
