M660 HMS – Hull-Mounted Sonar

The M660 HMS is a high-powered, active/passive, long range ASW sonar for in-service and future naval vessels. Completely custom built to meet your requirements, our system maintains the ability to be customized for multi roles after installation with simple software updates. This flexibility keeps this sonar on the cutting edge as compared to other options on the market.

Our M660 has a customizable transmission frequency range and the ability to electronically conduct both vertical and horizontal beam steering. Not only does this provide the capability to detect submarines, but the sonar’s high frequency and beam steering ability also provides the capability and fidelity to detect moored mines. A full-sized and compact version (pictured) of the M660 are currently available.
