A 2021 PopMech article about the US military's revival of interest in celestial navigation: https://www.popularmechanics.com/military/research/a36078957... It mentions a handheld system designed for special forces units to use, but I assume that that would incorporate something like a camera gyro stabiliser, presumably making the calculations easier than when relying on "strapdown" sensors.
