Thales Sells Sonar as Demonstrator for LCS



BREST, France - Thales has sold one of its Captas 4 antisubmarine sonars as a demonstrator on the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) program for the U.S. Navy, an executive of the French defense systems company said.

Thales Underwater Systems signed the contract in August with DRS Sonar Systems, which will deliver the towed array in the United States, the executive told journalists here ahead of the Euronaval trade show, which opens Oct. 25.
Delivery of the Captas unit is due at the end of September 2011. There is potential for sales of 25 of the combined active and passive sonars to the U.S. Navy program. The sonar could be used with either LCS candidate.
Captas 4 uses an automatic launch-and-recovery system at the rear of the ship and is designed for fast deployment and recovery in high sea states, the executive said.
The Captas 4249 towed body handling system being built for the LCS will be similar to the S 2087 sonar gear being delivered to the British Royal Navy for the Type 23 frigate.
In addition to the U.S. order, 22 of the Captas 4 sonars have been bought: eight for the Royal Navy, nine for the French FREMM multimission frigates in the antisubmarine warfare version, the four Italian FREMM ships and one FREMM bought by Morocco.
The Captas sonar, which has a copper aluminum body, is used to detect torpedoes and submarines.
