Parent topics
- Anti-submarine warfare [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance [r]: The synchronization of information collection and analysis, variously to gain strategic understanding, to detect anomalies, or to actively probe for information [e]
Subtopics
Aircraft
Historic
- P-2 Neptune [r]: Add brief definition or description
- B-24 Liberator (bomber) [r]: A U.S. designed heavy bomber, of the Second World War, with moderate payload and defenses but extremely long range; valued as an anti-submarine warfare and maritime patrol aircraft [e]
Weapons
- Air-to-surface missile [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Anti-shipping missile [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Depth charge [r]: Early antisubmarine weapons consisting of a large explosive charge and a fuze that was set for a given depth; free-falling and formed a barrage with no guidance; later models had streamlined cases for faster sinking [e]
- Gravity bomb [r]: A bomb with no supplemental propulsion, whose trajectory is determined by initial velocity and gravity, or by the action of aerodynamic control surfaces. [e]
- Guided bomb [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Joint Direct Attack Munition [r]: Add brief definition or description Variant being developed to allow high-altitude torpedo drops
- Torpedo [r]: A naval weapon that travels underwater, using its own propulsion, to attack its target, minimally with onboard mechanisms to keep it on a straight course. Modern torpedoes are underwater guided missiles that can track their target and adjust their course to hit it [e]
- Mark 46 (torpedo) [r]: U.S. lightweight antisubmarine torpedo, air-dropped, fired from surface ship tubes, carried by RUM-139 Vertical Launch ASROC; being replaced by Mark 50 (torpedo) [e]
- Mark 50 (torpedo) [r]: Add brief definition or description
Avionics
Antisubmarine
- Magnetic anomaly detection [r]: (MAD) A technique for locating submerged submarines from antisubmarine warfare helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft; short-range and used for final localization, complementing sonar, before weapons release [e]
- Sonobuoy [r]: Air-dropped, expendable sensors for anti-submarine warfare [e]
Surface surveillance
- Littoral Surveillance Radar System [r]: An active electronically scanned array (AESA) surveillance radar, currently used on maritime patrol aircraft also used in littoral (military) and overland operation; the still highly classified system will go onto next-generation surveillance aircraft and provide targeting information to precision-guided munitions [e]
Electronic warfare
- AAR-60 [r]: Add brief definition or description
- ALE-47 [r]: Add brief definition or description
- ALQ-213 [r]: Add brief definition or description
