I've not understand now how they can use a gyro as ABS, but i've seen in a Saab Grippen (gear look like F-16 one) a Gyro on the front wheel to ensure straight breaking and that was the good idea for this plane. During the earlier flight without gyro, breaking was a heart stoping action as the pilot never know wich side the plane should go...

Or maybewe are misunderstanding this mount. Maybe the author consider that if breaking is "good" the plane should go straight, and when the wheels are blocked the plane should drift. As this drift should be detected by the gyro (yaw axis), this one should release brakes to stop the drift? That is an ABS, ok... Maybe someone that read this paper should confirm ?

My2 cents...
