@Lazarus dijo en Fragatas F-100:
Y estos sistemas, hasta donde yo se, no son LAMPS III.
Y esa es otra yo no estoy seguro de eso. ¿Acaso no usa la Navy los CAPTAS de Thales? De hecho buscando leo lo siguiente:
*The Thales CAPTAS (Combined Active and Passive Towed Array Sonar) and the LAMPS III (Light Airborne Multipurpose System) are highly complementary and operate as a unified anti-submarine warfare (ASW) ecosystem. In this setup, the ship uses the towed CAPTAS to detect long-range acoustic data, while the LAMPS III helicopter serves as an extended sensor and attack platform.
System Compatibility & InteroperabilityData Integration:
LAMPS III helicopters (primarily the SH-60B or the upgraded MH-60R) share tactical data links with LAMPS-capable host ships. The ship processes the acoustic and sonar data gathered from the CAPTAS and can transmit this information in real-time to the helicopter for processing and localized tracking.
Hawklink / CDL: Legacy LAMPS systems used C-band data links, while modernized systems employ the CDL Hawklink to pass wideband radar, acoustic, and sensor data between the ship and the Sikorsky aircraft.
Tactical Coordination: Through the LAMPS architecture, both assets can prosecute a target, with the airborne tactical officer (ATO) and sensor operator utilizing the ship's active ping data to drop sonobuoys or deploy ordnance.
Operational Synergy
The combination of a hull-mounted or towed CAPTAS with LAMPS III allows for a powerful surface-to-air ASW team. The ship's variable depth sonar identifies deep-water threats, while the helicopter provides rapid-response targeting, speed-of-advance advantages, and localized dipping sonar capabilities.*
