Part 3: Tracking the Enemy
In World War II, a submarine’s ability to deploy military strength to an area without being detected was strategically invaluable. Then the ability to neutralize an opponent’s underwater force was a primary objective. The 1942-43 naval campaign against German U-boats known as the Battle of the Atlantic was a major victory not only for Allied warships but also for naval intelligence. Advances in technology will continue to make subs stealthier, and detection systems more effective, in the ongoing evolution of anti-submarine warfare, ASW.
