The Philippine Navy (PN) has announced that after a very long time, a vessel of theirs was again able to detect a Submarine of another Country. The BRP Conrado Yap (PS-39) Corvette was able to detect an American Submarine while on routine Patrol off the waters of Palawan.
Note that the Americans don’t use conventionally powered Submarines anymore, they are all Nuclear powered, and these are potentially not as quiet as conventional Submarines since their Nuclear Reactor System have more moving parts.
And perhaps the Sub also may have been overconfident and not operating at its stealthiest setting in our waters since no PN ship has Submarine Detection capability for a long, long time.
Notice also that the PN was not only able to detect a Sub, but they were also able to identify its Nationality based on its Acoustic Signature.
