Zitat:SAES And Thales To Cooperate On SonoFlash Sonobuoy Processinghttps://www.navalnews.com/naval-news/202...rocessing/
Spain's SAES & France's Thales have agreed to integrate the new Thales SonoFlash sonobuoy on SAES' acoustic sonobuoy processor. The agreement was announced during the Feindef 2021 defense exhibition currently held in Madrid, Spain. [...] SAES (S. A. Electronica Submarina) is a major player in the fields of sonar technology and anti-submarine defence, backed by its participation in the Spanish Navy’s major naval programmes for more than 30 years. Among others, it has been an essential part of the Spanish Segura class minehunters, the S-70 and S-80 submarines, the F-100 and F110 frigates and the P-3M maritime patrol aircraft, all of them dedicated to the submarine defence of our coasts. [...]
According to Thales, the SonoFlash’s innovative design and advanced technology incorporate several key features that deliver unmatched performance. Today’s buoys are either passive or active, but the SonoFlash combines the two modes in a single sonobuoy: an optimal, powerful low-frequency transmitter and a passive receiver with a high directivity gain. The combination of these two capabilities with high endurance makes the SonoFlash buoy very versatile.
