Q&A

is it possible to detect submarines in a sea from an aircraft? if possible how will it be?

+0

While working on my story, I just came up with this doubt. Is it possible to know or to detect something like a submarine in an ocean from an aircraft with our current technology? I mean to detect it with the installed instruments within the flying aircraft and not using instruments or sonar that actually enter the water or float on the surface of the water.

  1. Is that possible with our current technology?

  2. If it is possible in the future, how will it work, and please talk about its limits on detectability like the depth of visibility and rough sea/smooth sea etc.
