Parent topics
- Anti-submarine warfare [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Geophysical MASINT [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Sonar [r]: A contraction of sound navigation and ranging, formally includes the active mode in which a pulse goes out and a receiver measures the echo. Also includes hydrophones or passive, listen-only systems. [e]
Subtopics
- AN/SSQ-363 [r]: Air-expendable bathythermograph (AXBT) buoys in a sonobuoy package [e] air-expendable bathythermograph (AXBT) buoys in a sonobuoy package
- AN/SSQ-53 [r]: Directional frequency analysis and recording (DIFAR) passive sonobuoy family built for the United States Navy [e] directional frequency analysis and recording (DIFAR) passive sonobuoy family
- AN/SSQ-57 [r]: U.S. Navy family of low-frequency analysis and recording (LOFAR) passive sonobuoys [e]
- AN/SSQ-77 [r]: Typically for the high background noise environment of littoral warfare, U.S. Navy Vertical line array DIFAR (VLAD) sonobuoys with directional receiver arrays and signal processing [e] vertical line array DIFAR (VLAD) sonobuoys with directional receiver arrays and signal processing
- AN/SSQ-62 [r]: Directional command activated active sonobuoy system (DICASS) of the U.S. Navy [e] directional command activated active sonobuoy system (DICASS)
- AN/SSQ-110 [r]: Add brief definition or description extended echo-ranging (EER) active sonobuoys; carry small explosive charges used as additional sources of acoustic
- Data Link Communications Sonobuoy [r]: Acoustic transmitter, in a sonobuoy housing, for clandestine communications with submerged submarines. [e] acoustic transmitter, in a sonobuoy housing, for communications with submerged submarines.
- Maritime patrol aircraft [r]: Very long range, usually land-based, aircraft optimized for sea surveillance, originally principally for anti-submarine warfare but often with anti-surface warfare capabilities; newer types also have land and littoral surveillance roles [e]
- Magnetic anomaly detection [r]: (MAD) A technique for locating submerged submarines from antisubmarine warfare helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft; short-range and used for final localization, complementing sonar, before weapons release [e]
