Among the devices that the group helped develop or test were the radar altimeter, the magnetic anomaly detector, the sonobuoy, improved airborne depth charges, long-range navigation systems, and airborne microwave radar.

This Il-114 has a FLIR under the nose, a magnetometer in the tail section, a semi-automatic sonobuoy dispenser, and 2 pylons under the fuselage for sensor pods or Kh-35 anti-ship missiles.

For ships that cooperate with aircraft, they will need a data link to sonobuoys and a sonobuoy signal processor, unless the aircraft has extensive processing capability and can send information that can be accepted directly by tactical computers and displays.

Riley moved to the Defence Science and Technology Organisation ( DSTO ), the research arm of the Australian Department of Defence, in 1988, initially working on sonar signal processing which improved the performance of towed array and sonobuoy systems.

In addition to the Bendix AQS-13B sonar, Magnetic Anomaly Detector ( MAD ) and Multi-Channel Jezebel Relay ( MCJR ) active sonobuoy systems were added to the aircraft, the latter providing the carrier with sonobuoy monitoring capability.

Various onboard systems are provided by Honeywell, who is the largest non-Japanese supplier to the project, such as the auxiliary power unit, environmental and pressurization control systems, ram air turbine, sonobuoy dispensers and elements of the avionics.

After the abandonment of the T1302 buoy, the Company was commissioned to carry out design studies, in conjunction with RAE, into the Mk1C sonobuoy system and indeed early experimental work which has led to the development of the present sonar equipment in Nimrod.

On 1 August 1972, a squadron A-7A was used to establish a sonobuoy field in an anchorage area near the island of Hon Nieu, off the coast of North Vietnam-the first time an A-7 had ever been used to drop sonobuoys.

Computers on the Orion, with information fed by acoustic operators AW1 Erik Moller and AW3 Tina Alton, provided Carr, the tactical coordinator, with a computer-generated picture of the sonobuoy barrier, the P-3 itself and the best estimate of where the submarine was hiding.
