MIR (Radio Navigation)

Since a color display is not used for the MIR, the navigation information for the display is sent via a NAV bus. The NAV bus is a single dedicated line between the Mk-3 computer and the MIR. Audio signals for navigation instructions are sent to the radio via two separate lines.
