Key System Features

Passive Surveillance Sonar that uses a cylindrical array, Front end, processing and display electronics. Enables detection, localization and tracking of surface and sub-surface targets. Also includes spectral information processing of tracked targets for classification.
The Active Sonar uses a planar array for ranging and Doppler estimation of targets. Power Amplifier modules are used to amplify the signal to the required source level.
Detecting active transmission of other vessels and aiding in long range detection of targets.
Under Water Communication System – Supports Voice, Data, Message and Pinger modes of operation, Operates in both the EKM and NATO Bands.
Mine Hunting and Obstacle Avoidance Sonar Uses a planar forward looking array for operations in the littoral such as mine and collision avoidance capabilities for aiding navigation.
Standardized modular architecture for efficient packing of electronics for better maintainability and reliability. User Friendly GUI and Proven Processing algorithms allowing operation in Dual and Single operator modes.
Integrated Continuous real-time self-noise monitoring using hydrophones and accelerometers.
Measures the speed of sound in water columns providing comprehensive SVR plots and enabling sonar performance modeling.
Data recorder records acoustic sonar streams as well as own ship data (Such as Course, Speed, Depth, etc) for lab analysis.
