Abstract

The submarine has a hull (10) provided with an outer skin (12) having a number of omnidirectional reception hydrophones (16), coupled to a signal processing device (17) for location of a torpedo from the sound pulses emitted by the latter. The hydrophones are directly attached to the outer skin in a defined pattern across the hull, with location of the torpedo from the propagation time differences between the received signals.
