[WAD] Range of AN/BQS-15
Posted: Wed May 14, 2014 5:22 am
It look like AN/BQS-15 has range of less than 1/2 nm. Rising mine detonates at larger distance. Possibly it should work this way, but on the other hand quite modern sub (SSN Virginia) has Mine Avoidance sonar wich is useless for stated purpose.
Please see sample scen - Virginia is blow up before detecting mine, Zumwalt is able to detect it and avoid.
Best Regards
