The Soviet navy appears to have been the first to develop wake detection systems. The Systema Obnaruzhenya Kilvaternogo Sleda (SOKS) was developed in the late 1960s. During the later part of the Cold War it became known that Soviet submarines had managed to trail NATO boats undetected on a few occasions. The Russians confirmed this publicly in the ...
Surprisingly, there is more is in the public domain about Soviet and Russian systems than about UK wake-detection technology. What is certain is that RN submarines have received various Non-Acoustic Sensors (NAS) for trials and testing going back at least three decades. Whether used operationally across the fleet or on a temporary experimental basi...
Details of how the non-acoustic sensors work are sketchy but in broad terms, infrared or laser light is passed through the water being sampled by the probes. The absorption or refraction of light by tiny particles present in the water can be measured. The science of spectroscopy enables the detection of very low concentrations that may only be a fe...
Sometime in 2019, HMS Talent was fitted with a wake detection system on the forward part of the casing. The visible mounting consists of 4 probes. This was further supplemented with another two identical mountings fitted on either side of the upper fin in 2020. The reappearance of NAS on a Trafalgar class boat suggests that the technology is contin...
Thales designs and delivers acoustic and communication systems and subsystems for anti-submarine warfare and anti-mine warfare. Our solutions and related services are suitable for all types of platforms: submarines, surface ships, helicopters, maritime patrol aircrafts and unmanned naval systems.
Anti-submarine warfare. ASW underwater sonar equipment is used by naval defence vessels to detect, classify, track and attack underwater threats and targets, such as torpedoes. ASW sonars are usually of two types, active or passive. Active sonars are used to detect the acoustic signature of a submarine or underwater threat and target its position.
These include low-frequency, high-power sonar for surveillance, mid-frequency sonar for surface ships, passive and active submarine sonar, anti-mine sonar, acoustic torpedoes, underwater navigation and communication systems, biomimetic autonomous vehicles, harbor defense systems, and more.

Mar 2, 2021 · Advancements in submarine detection have the potential to affect the survivability of submarines as nuclear delivery platforms. Submarine detection and monitoring was traditionally the exclusive domain of highly classified military units specializing in naval anti-submarine warfare (ASW).

Aug 22, 2010 · The UK Royal Navy has accepted the Thales 100 SEEPIRB (submarine-ejected emergency positioning indicating radio beacon) buoys into service with all classes of its submarines, including the new Astute Class. The SEEPIRB provides distress warning and position information via radio transmi.
