The Global Positioning System, or GPS, is a network of Satellites used for accurate navigation of ships and aircraft.
They don't - all aircraft, ships, and submarines use both magnetic, gyro, radio, visual, and satellite navigation systems. Ships and submarines also use dead reckoning plots and land based navigational aids for fixes (close to shore) for navigating.
The Omega Navigation System worked by transmitting VLF radio signals from a network of ground-based stations to provide accurate navigation information to ships and aircraft. By using the time difference between signals received from multiple stations, users could determine their location anywhere on Earth. Omega ceased operations in 1997 due to advancements in GPS technology.
Aircraft yes. Ships no.
Radar waves are used for various purposes such as tracking the movement of objects (like aircraft and ships), detecting weather patterns, monitoring speed and distance, mapping terrain, and aiding in navigation for ships and aircraft. Radar is also used in military applications for surveillance and targeting.
The Air Force has Aircraft not Ships. The Navy has Ships.
There are lots of navigation schools listed on the internet. Do a Google search to find one in your area. Most are oriented towards marine navigation, however, as aviation navigation is almost entirely computerized and integrated into the aircraft guidance system. In theory, though, there is little difference in the basics of either.
Of course, navy aircraft are military aircraft.
Primarily, radar is used in all aspects as a ranging device. It is extremely accurate in determining distances in navigation systems, fire control systems and tracking devices used on aircraft, ships, and missles. The specific military uses are tracking ships and aircraft and fire control systems for missles, ships and aircraft. They even use systems for conter battery, literally tracking an artillery shell and determining the location of the firing weapon.
A gyrocompass is important because it provides accurate direction determination that is not affected by magnetic interference, making it ideal for navigation in areas with high magnetic deviation. It is commonly used in ships and aircraft for precise heading information, allowing for safe and efficient navigation.

Coordinates on a map are used for navigation. Many ships and aircraft use coordinates to travel vast distances. Coordinates are also utilized by GPS (Global-Positioning Systems).
