Sever-E
Static sonar system

Mission

The Sever-E static passive sonar system is designed to surveillance undersea situation for search surface and underwater objects at vast areas, low-noise submarines essentially.

Features

  • search and detection of submarines, surface ships by their sonar fields, with the determination of their coordinates;
  • tracking of the detected targets, computation of their parameters (heading, speed, movement pattern);
  • classification of the tracking targets by their noise signatures;
  • automated transmitting tactical situation data processed for Task Force targeting by means different communication channels, satellite including.

Capabilities

The Sever-E system is capable of detecting ships and low-noise submarines, being deployed along an up to 1,000 km long borderline, at a deep of up to 200 km off-shore and placed at seabed at an up to 1,000 m depth. Coverage zones – 30-30,000 sq. km. Thanks to high reliability of its components the system can operate continuously for 10 years without the need for retrieving the bottom equipment.
