Lockheed Martin to build anti submarine warfare ASW towed array sonar systems for surface warships. WASHINGTON U. S. Navy anti submarine warfare ASW experts are adding towed array sonar systems to the fleet to enable surface warships to hunt and attack quiet enemy submarines lurking at a variety of ocean depths. Officials of the Naval Sea Systems Command on Friday announced a 4. Lockheed Martin to build antisubmarine warfare ASW towedarray sonar systems for surface warships. Lockheed Martin Corp. Rotary and Mission Systems segment in Liverpool, N. Y., to build TB 3. U Multi Function Towed Array MFTA sonar systems. The contract modification also calls for Lockheed Martin to provide accessories, shipping products, and engineering services. The TB 3. 7U, part of the ANSQQ 8. V undersea warfare and anti submarine warfare combat system, is a next generation passive and active sonar receiver configured as a long 3 inch diameter array that can be towed behind surface warships. It is for Arleigh Burke class destroyers, Ticonderoga class cruisers, Independence and Freedom class littoral combat ships, and Zumwalt class land attack destroyers. The TB 3. 7U helps Navy surface vessels detect, pinpoint, and attack enemy submarines. To build it, Lockheed Martin is collaborating with L3 Chesapeake Science Corp. Millersville, Md. The TB 3. 7U MFTA is an active and passive sonar. It can remain silent and simply listen for the sounds of enemy submarines, or it can ping active to bounce sound off the hulls of submarines in the area. Related L 3 to build six more TB 2.

The TB 3. 7U can operate at a variety of depths to enable surface ships to detect and localize enemy submarines that may be attempting to hide in different ocean layers of varying temperatures and salinity. Ocean layers sometimes can bend sound signals and deceive sonar. The TB 3. 7U MFTA is the next generation passive and active sonar receiver. It affords several enhancements to the ANSQR 1. Tactical Towed Array System allowing greater coverage, increased capability and reliability, and reduced obsolescence, Navy officials say. Hana Yori Dango Vol 37 here. Native AdvertisementThe TB 3. U MFTA significantly contributes to the capability of surface ships to detect, localize, and prosecute undersea threats and is a critical sensor to a combat systems suite. This contract combines purchases for the U. S. and Japanese navies. Lockheed Martin will do the work in Liverpool, N. Y. Millersville, Md. Marion, Mass., and should be finished by September 2.
