Description:
The AN/SQQ-89 is the US Navy undersea warfare management system. It receives input from hull-mounted and towed array sonars along with sonobuoy data relayed through LAMPS III (SH-60B) helicopters, and displays a picture of tactical situation to those who must be the first to know.
The SQQ-89 also provides control of undersea weapon systems. It has been installed on Ticonderoga-class cruisers, Spruance and Burke-class destroyers, and Perry-class frigates.
The US Navy awarded General Dynamics a $21.6 million contract to develop advanced AN/SQQ-89A(V)15 surface ship sonar system. This variant will feature automated torpedo detection, sonar performance prediction, active sonar, active displays and integrated training and logistics support. The AN/SQQ-89(V)15 incorporates the Remote Minehunting System (RMS).
