DÜFAS is equipped with the most up-to-date technology and is a
depth-variable towed active/passive sonar system used primarily for the
detection of silent underwater threats, including submarines, from very long
distances for surface platforms. The system enables the detection and tracking
of targets at long ranges. By also utilizing the continuous active sonar
feature, it provides the capability for high-accuracy detection over wide
areas.
Immediate Countermeasure Against
Torpedo
In passive sonar mode, the system listens to environmental noises for
the detection of threats such as torpedoes. Unlike its counterparts, DÜFAS
suggests the most appropriate countermeasure tactics and ship evasion maneuvers
to neutralize torpedoes launched by enemy platforms to the user. Thus, in
addition to its active sonar capability, the system becomes a torpedo
countermeasure system, offering a comprehensive solution.
