ZARGANATM Submarine Torpedo Countermeasure System ensures submarine survivability against torpedo attacks by autonomous operation and quick reaction capabilities. The system is designed to work integrated with submarine systems collecting real time data as well as operator provided data.
ZARGANATM system basically collects platform and threat related data from submarine systems and performs detection, classification and localization to provide torpedo counter measure tactics with highest escape probability. Tactics include evasive maneuvering advices for submarine, deployment pattern and timing for acoustic jammers/decoys launching.
