BTW, someone knows any rumor on possible updates on doctrines related to torpedo search and efficiency in the new RA 1.1 (I mainly mean SUBROC, but even other foretaste will be appreciated)? |

NOTE : In the 1960s, basically new active mine systems, i.e. wide-band rocket-assisted mines and mine-torpedoes were developed. Mines not only retain advantages over other underwater weapons, but have acquired a new capability to attack remote targets within a relatively short time and with all elements of surprise.
The first active mine systems came into service with the Navy in the early 1970s. They were represented by the PMR-2 antisubmarine rocket-assisted mine, which is unrivaled in the world, and the PMK-1 mine system (the export version of the PMR-2 system), which was basically a combination of a moored mine and a fast underwater automatically targeted rocket, as well as the PMT-1 antisubmarine mine-torpedo (the export version of the PMK-2 system) - a combination of a moored mine and a small antisubmarine homing torpedo. The caliber of the PMK-2 weapon is 533 mm and its length is not more than 6 m. The distinguishing feature of these systems is that though they are basically active mines, they attack targets themselves. The equipment of these mine systems detects and classifies an underwater target, determines its course and running depth, optimizes the target intercept trajectory and generates a command to launch either a rocket, which runs at a speed of about 80 m/s, or torpedo.
The warheads (rockets or torpedoes) are accommodated in sealed launchers planted at great depths. There are no effective countermeasures against them today. Operation of the target detection, classification and dynamic parameter determination systems is based on acoustic principles.
