The low frequency and the wide bandwidth provide unmatched detection and classi-
fication ranges in littoral and reverberation-limited environments, giving the needed
time for decision making with inspection and reaction.

The LASAR 5 exceptional detection ranges resulting in fewer sonars needed to cover
a given underwater area. This also means reducing installation complexity and cost.
Another benefit from the long detection ranges is that the sonars can be located at
convenient locations (locations suitable for maintenance, locations not in conflict
with fishing activities, dredging, etc) and still providing full coverage.

Signal Processor and Operatior Workstation


LASAR 5 is designed for multi-sensor network integration using KONGSBERG’s MSI
System for signal processing and system operation. Standard Ethernet protocol is
used for integration with external systems.
