Zusammenfassung:This study consists of two basic parts: (1) An analysis of task force screening by hydrofoil vehicles, using intermittent search with convergence zone sonar propagation; and (2) An analysis of the interaction between enemy submarines and hydrofoil vehicles escorting a task force. The objective of this study is to provide parametric information to permit the evaluation of the effectiveness of potential hydrofoil craft operating as an anti-submarine screen for a naval task force or a convoy, with emphasis on the former.
