The towing cable plays a role in dropping and salvaging the Towed Array Sonar System (TASS) into the water and transmitting the signal (information) detected by the sonar in the water to the probe or surface ship. The towing cable consists of a heavy cable and a lightweight cable in detail. The towing cable for sonar is characterized by high reliability and durability as the underwater environment deteriorates as the operating depth increases. Due to these restrictions, cases designed and manufactured in Korea are extremely rare. The core technology for towing cable design secured through this study is expected to be used in various ways in the defense industry and the private sector.
