ASW TARGET

Abstract

A new cost effective Advanced Expendable Mobile ASW Training Target (new nomenclature MK1 Mod 0 Parrotfish Expendable Target) is required to acoustically and dynamically emulate threat submarines for fleet qualification and proficiency training on and off undersea ranges. Acoustically a new system is required to provide a higher fidelity active sonar system and torpedo sonar system with expanded frequency coverage than current systems to be compatible with sonar and torpedo systems being fielded on the P-8, SH-60R, and AN-SQQ-89 capable surface ships and the MK54 Mod 0 and MK48 Mod 7 Torpedoes. Dynamically the target needs to emulate both low and high speed ends of threat submarines performance envelope to provide needed training realism.
