Description

Build, test and demonstrate within the Navy’s current Live-Virtual-Constructive (LVC) training enterprise a new kind of training device -- a Training Sonobuoy (TSB) -- to address a notable training gap in Coordinated Anti-Summary Warfare (ASW) LVC training.  The concept of the TSB is to support both: 1) injection of synthetic V-C underwater targets into the L enterprise, and 2) conduct real-time sampling of L underwater environment for input into the V-C enterprise. For Phase II, and informed by the Phase I findings, we propose to conduct the hardware design and build, and to continue to enhance and then integrate the software into the design to realize this capability with a fully vetted prototype, ready for fleet experimentation upon completion of this phase.
