Raytheon Nabs Order for Underwater Warfare Sonar Spares

Raytheon Receives Order for Underwater Warfare Sonar Spares

Raytheon has been awarded a $42.5 million contract for the manufacture and delivery of AN/AQS-22 Airborne Low Frequency Sonar spares for the Royal Australian Navy.

The AN/AQS-22 Airborne Low Frequency Sonar (ALFS) is the primary undersea warfare (USW) sensor of the MH-60R multi-mission helicopter. This integrated dipping sonar system enables the MH-60R to accomplish the assigned USW missions of submarine detection, tracking, localization and classification. It also performs missions relating to acoustic intercept, underwater communications and environmental data acquisition.

Works will be carried out in Rhode Island with a February 2017 performance completion date.
