Smarter soft kill

Article Abstract:

Offboard decoy systems are becoming important fixtures on major surface combatants and increasingly fitted to high value minor war vessels. Cued by electronic support measures system, or responding to a threat message from the ship's combat system, their essential features are quick response, minimal ship impact and low cost. Some of these systems include Hycor's 130mm caliber Mk 36 Super Rapid Blooming Offboard Chaff, TERMA Elektronik's Soft Kill Weapon System and BAE Systems' Mk 251 Active Decoy Round.

Integration is the key to electronic warfare at sea

Article Abstract:

Electronic warfare (EW) equipment are increasingly being integrated within the total surface warship combat system. Electronic support measures equipment are used as passive sensors for long-range tactical surveillance, intelligence gathering, over-the-horizon targeting and threat warning. Meanwhile, electronic countermeasure technologies and techniques are used in shipborne jamming systems to counterbalance advance radar threats.

Boosting the staying power of the non-nuclear submarine

Article Abstract:

Air independent propulsion (AIP) alternatives for use in non-nuclear submarines are growing in number as more nations seek to improve the speed, mobility, autonomy and submerged endurance of their fleet of submarines. Closed-cycle diesels, closed rankine cycle engines and fuel cells, set to be released to the market soon, are some of the prospective competitors to the currently dominant Stirling engines.
