I'm thinking of the array that is supposedly going to be incorporated on some of the new SSN 774s

Conformal Acoustic Velocity Sonar (CAVES) is another term I've heard. Perhaps I'm interchanging them inappropriately. The things that I've read, mainly SSN 774 briefings, make it sound like conformal arrays will be different that existing arrays, replacing the WAA and making "improvements" in design somehow.

Links/clarification would be great. :hmm:
