The AN/SQS-35 was a United States Navy surface ship independent, towed variable depth sonar system (IVDS) developed by the Naval Underwater Sound Laboratory the EDO Corporation.

Capabilities

The AN/SQS-35 could function under 3 primary modes, with 'search' and 'attack' (active) and 'listen' (passive) modes available to it. The sonar system utilized 3 target displays, two PPIs and a classification recorder, and provided ships mounted with the towed array with the capability to search the 13 kHz high-frequency band at variable depths, including below the layer or depths of up to 180 meters. The sonar could maintain a maximum power output of 30 kW and a range of 12,000 yards or approximately 11 km.

Variants

  • SQS-35J - Japanese produced version
  • SQS-36 - Hull Mounted version
  • SQS-38 - Solid-State version

Specifications

  • Operating frequency: 13 kHz
  • Peak frequency: 14.1 kHz (SQS-36)
  • Array height: 1.6 m (5'2")
  • Array diameter: 4.8 m (15'7")
  • Beams: 12 preformed RDT beams

Ships

The AN/SQS-35 and it's variants were mounted in the U.S. Navy's Knox Class Frigates, the U.S. Hamilton-class coast guard cutters, as well as the JMSDF's Shirane class and Tikatasuki class destroyers.
