One UUV question - at stop, with indefiinite persist, will it continue to act as a reporting passive receptor, or will functioning be motion dependent ? The latter would simulate limited battery life and is what I am hoping for. :hmm:
I have been retesting comparitive sub sonar receptivity and welcome your APR-3 proposals. It tips the MP balance slightly to a red linked team and as a SW captain I have to declare my position that I shall anxiously await experience of just how low the noise profile is during the 'search' phase.
I still think WAA has been increased in efficiency but hey I better shut up now some advantages are flowing the other way.
Good work in moving us forward we could vegetate in a comfort zone !

Sure, I could put a timer on it, but given the dynamics of batteries etc, the timer would last like 12 hours or more (given that it can last two hours or so moving at 6kts), so I figure that's well beyond the time frame of most DW missions, and therefore unnecessary. Althought I suppose I could do a 12 hour timer just in case.
