Periscope Detection

Abstract

Periscope Detection: The CVN Periscope Detection Radar program, AN/SPS-74(V)2, develops and delivers the capability which provides automated detection and discrimination of submarine periscopes using advanced algorithms. This enables discrimination of periscopes from surface contacts, buoys, small boats, floating mines, etc. This effort was initially based on an advanced development model, developed in PE 0603553N, Surface Antisubmarine Warfare. System Engineering efforts under RDT&E funding will support the conversion of the Advanced Demonstration Model (ADM) variant currently installed to a production representative model that addresses manufacturability, supportability and reliability aspects as well as full system certification. In addition, funding will develop the Periscope Detection and Discrimination (PDD) Interface for AN/SPQ-9B Radar.
