Company profiles and product examples of selected competitors, along with market share estimates of some of the selected leaders for the year 2023, are provided.

Military sonars can be classified into two basic types, active and passive. Active sonar uses an array of electro-acoustic transducers to generate a sonic pulse, or ping, and hydrophones to detect the echoes of the pulse. Distance measurements are made using the time taken to receive the echo, plus the known speed of sound in water.

Military sonar has multiple applications in the naval industry, some of which are listed below.

1.Mine and obstacle detection

Mine detection sonar systems can help detect various types of mines, including bottom mines, moored mines and floating mines, as well as other objects that could obstruct naval vessel navigation. Sonars provide full coverage and awareness of surrounding waters in addition to high-resolution images and detailed bathymetry of the seabed, which enables naval vessels to safely navigate uncharted waters.

2.Anti-submarine warfare

ASW underwater sonar equipment is used by naval vessels to detect, classify, track and attack underwater threats and targets, such as torpedoes. ASW sonars are usually of two types, active or passive. Active sonars are used to detect the acoustic signature of a submarine or underwater threat and target its position. Passive sonars are used to listen to the sounds of submarines and surface vessels using underwater hydrophones.

3.Navigation and communication

Sonar technology is used by submarines to safely navigate, as radars are not effective under water. Sonar arrays are usually hull-mounted or towed and enable the detection of faraway objects.

4.Communication sonar systems use sound propagation to communicate with other vessels and submarines.
