An introductory description is first made of submarines and antisubmarine units. Determination of underwater targets is analyzed from the background of true and relative bearings, true and relative motion, and computation of target angles. Then, applications of both active and passive sonars are explained in connection with bathythesmographs, fathometers, tape recorders, fire control techniques, tfiternal and external communications systems, maintenance actions, test methods and equipment, and safety precautions. Basic principles of sound and temperature effects on wave propagation are also discussed. Illustrations for explanation use, information on training films and the sonar technician rating structure are also provided.. (CC) -^' U.S DEPARTMENT OFHEALTH.

  • Japan Under the US Nuclear Umbrella
    Japan Under the US Nuclear Umbrella Hans Kristensen ___________________________________________________________ Introduction And Summary During the Cold War, rumors concerning U.S. deployments of nuclear weapons to Japan were both numerous and widely reported. Such rumors were consistently met with adamant denials by Japanese governments1 and a refusal by U.S. governments to discuss any aspects of nuclear weapons deployments overseas. Despite the end of the Cold War and the U.S. withdrawal of its last forward-deployed tactical nuclear weapons seven years ago, information about U.S. nuclear operations in Japan has remained shrouded in military secrecy. The Nautilus Institute's East Asia Nuclear Policy Project, a far-ranging project aimed at promoting open debate over the role of nuclear weapons in the Asia-Pacific region, has for the past year sponsored detailed research into the history of U.S. nuclear weapons practices in Japan. U.S. government documents recently declassified under the Freedom of Information Act and obtained through this research add substantial weight to previous assertions that the United States routinely brought nuclear weapons into Japan during the Cold War despite Japan's non-nuclear policy. These documents also shed light on suspicions that Japanese government officials knowingly accepted these deployments. Perhaps most surprisingly, the declassified documents also reveal the previously unreported extent to which the United States also conducted nuclear war planning in Japan. Nautilus Institute Research Associate Hans Kristensen has compiled these findings into a comprehensive, chronologically organized report that combines an array of previously unknown facts with news reports to portray clearly the extent to which the United States and Japan both allowed Japan to become involved in U.S.

  • Another Example of a Mission Ready Ship Because of a U.S. Navy Port Engineer
    Another example of a mission ready ship because of a U.S. Navy Port Engineer USS Gridley Joins NATO Allies in Visit to Halifax Before Joint Exercise Story Number: NNS190909-25Release Date: 9/9/2019 3:31:00 PM By Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Cameron Stoner, Standing NATO Maritime Group One Public Affairs HALIFAX, Nova Scotia (NNS) -- U.S. Navy guided-missile destroyer USS Gridley (DDG 101) joined allies from Standing NATO Maritime Group One (SNMG1) in a scheduled port visit to Halifax, Nova Scotia, Sept. 5-6, before exercise Cutlass Fury 2019, hosted by the Royal Canadian Navy. SNMG1 also includes Royal Norwegian Navy frigate HNoMS Thor Heyerdahl (F-314), Belgian Navy frigate Leopold I (F930), Portuguese Navy frigate NRP D. Francisco de Almeida (F334) and Royal Netherlands Navy frigate HNLMS Van Speijk (F 828). To avoid potential rough weather in Halifax Harbor resulting from Hurricane Dorian, most ships participating in Cutlass Fury 2019 departed port two days earlier than planned. Going to sea and maneuvering to avoid bad weather generally reduces the risk of damage to ships and equipment. SNMG1 is one of four standing maritime task groups composed of ships from various Allied countries. These task groups form the core maritime capabilities of NATO’s Very High Readiness Joint Task Force (VJTF). They provide a continuous maritime capability to execute NATO missions across the spectrum of operations, demonstrate solidarity, and strengthen diplomatic and professional links among Allied naval forces.

Webmaster’s Note: The fourth USS Gridley (DDG-101) is the 51st Arleigh Burke-class destroyer in the United States Navy.
