That technology is stellar-inertial guidance, in which the missile's self-contained
inertial system is supplemented by an inflight star sight. Tracing the dispute over
stellar-inertial guidance takes us into the heart of both the organizational ...
Donald A. MacKenzie, 1993
We can take our choice of two guidance systems : remote control or inertial
guidance. Guidance commands may be generated by tracking the rocket with
optical instruments, radar, or radio, and comparing the actual track with the
prescribed ...

Instruments of Science: An Historical Encyclopedia
The V-2 control system was adequate for hitring its target, metropolitan London,
but we cannot call it an inertial guidance system because the missile followed a
well-known trajectory. The Y-2 devices could not guide an aircraft over a long.
Robert Bud, Deborah Jean Warner, 1998
