CHURCH GABBRO Technical Note: Systems Description and Performance

Abstract

The report describes the technical features of systems used in the CHURCH GABBRO exercise during November - December 1972, critiques their performance and recommends future design and operational modifications. Systems discussed include acoustic measurement (ACODAC, MABS, TABS, VLAM and Sonobuoys), environmental instruments (XBTs, AXBTs, STD, current measurement systems, laser wave profiler) and the ships and aircraft involved. Forty-six recommendations are set forth for design improvements or operational procedures.
