Advanced High Altitude ASW
Abstract
The objective of this project is to develop the capability for precision standoff delivery of sonobuoys from high altitude in order to improve tactical flexibility and mission performance of P-8A aircraft. Current NAVAIR Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) companies are exploring promising technologies and are assessing the feasibility and practicality of proposed solutions for the precision placement of sonobuoys. This program will leverage SBIR technology to refine system concepts and to conduct field experiments and tests to evaluate technology solutions and assess their performance, cost, and producibility. The 200 R&D test articles will be used for concept demonstration. Pending successful demonstration of precision placement technology, design modifications to current sonobuoy sensors will be matured and prototyped for qualification and testing leading to transition into P-8A.
