Installed aboard Buran are around a thousand instruments, in which the most precise electromechanical equipment was combined with the latest equipment in electronics. The system determines where the Buran is at any given moment, selects the necessary trajectory, keeps it on course, and ensures a stable orientation in space. The components of the flight control and autopilot systems are briefly described.
