Thales: sonar suite for Dutch submarines

(CercleFinance.com) - Thales has announced that it will equip the Royal Netherlands Navy's future Orka-class submarines, which will replace its Walrus-class submarines currently in service, with a complete high-performance sonar suite.


Thales says that this suite will guarantee an unrivalled panoramic view of the underwater environment, enabling detection, localization and classification of all threats at short, medium and long range, over a wide range of frequencies.

This sonar suite will enable future Dutch submarines to ensure perfect control of the acoustic situation in the face of increasingly silent threats, Thales adds, which already equips over 50 submarines of various types (nuclear or conventional).
