Abstract
Advances in nuclear and diesel-electric submarine
technology have reduced the effectiveness of passive means of
detection. The United States is faced with a multipolar
threat in part due to the proliferation to Third World nations
of advanced diesel-electric submarines. The use of active
sonar must be explored to gain back the detection advantage
the United States submarine force has enjoyed in the past.
The use of bistatic sonar reduces the counter-detection threat
resulting from active sonar.
