I think the Iranians are unaware of the latest ASW technologies that the US has. The Navy is has several new acoustic and non-acoustic technologies especially tailored to the littoral environment.:
New technology developed and fielded includes.
Distant Thunder. This is a new body of advanced signal processing techniques for shallow water, littoral environments that uses innovative computer processing to detect target echoes generated by low frequency active sources.
Interactive Machine-Aided Training (IMAT). This is a new approach that uses computer-generated visualizations of underwater sound fields and propagation phenomena to develop operator intuition and greater understanding of sonar conditions and sensor effectiveness.
Advanced Rapid COTS Insertion (ARCI). The submarine community is leading the way in introducing commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) computer technology into its ASW systems and sensors, and processing gains are pretty dramatic.
Advanced Deployable System (ADS). ADS is a rapidly deployable, short-term undersea surveillance system designed for ASW monitoring of shallow water littoral operating areas like in the Strait of Hormuz. It will use an expendable, battery-powered, large-area field of passive acoustic arrays, interconnected and cabled to shore with fiber-optic cables.
Rapid Environmental Assessment. The Ocean-ographer of the Navy is developing techniques and procedures to assess the ASW environment of the littoral battlespace for rapid optimization of sensors and weapons and decision support. Remote off board sensors and satellite signal processing play key roles.
Advanced Technology Demonstrations (ATDs). ASW projects have fared well in recent years in this important program that encourages high-risk projects that offer potential for high payoff.
And don't forget the latest in the arsenal of ASW assets - the P-8 Poseidon which is fitted with the CAE advanced integrated magnetic anomaly detection (MAD) System that can identify even mini submarines in deep water.
So, the Iranian subs better watch out. It ain't gonna be a walk in the park!
Cheers!
