Advanced Early Submarine Detection System
The Republic of Karnali Navy has authorised the construction of a network of Sonar Surveillance Systems (SOSUS). This is basically a network of strategically placed sonar sensors and cables, that provide early warning of submarines. Combined with the continuous presence of Karnalian Navy ships, the SOSUS network and the ships will allow Karnali Navy to monitor the movement of submarines (including friendlies) throughout the region.
The Republic had earlier built a similar system on Micras. However, given the situation of the presence of the Republic now on Giess, the need to develop a network on Giess to protect the Republic has arisen. This network will improve upon the few deficiencies that were observed in the first network on Micras.
The following are the network cables to be lined in the position shown. Note that these are drawn so as to indicate how the network is spread, and does not, indicate the exact position.
The entire system of SOSUS network is called Advanced Early Submarine Detection System (or AESDS). The AESDS will be put in place by the Navy's ten Ingul Class cable ships (in the open water region) and by KS-411 'Yankee Stretch' class special task submarine (in the permanent ice region).
The AESDS consists of:
1. Circuit 1 (Shown in orange) - this network is to be built starting today, and is expected to be completed by the end of February (real world time). If a submarine crosses this line, then the Karnalian Navy ships will be ordered to sink the ship if it is deemed to be an enemy. If it is not an enemy ship, then the Karnalian Navy ships will be ordered to get itself in striking distance of the non-allied submarine, but will not attack if there does not exist a state of war with the nationality of that submarine. If its an allied submarine, the Karnalian Navy will send its ships to contact the submarine and maintain contact. If Karnali is at a state of war, all submarines (including friendlies) will be accompanied by Karnalian Navy ships, within striking distance (if its an enemy ship, it will be attacked). All allied ships when contacted must be surfaced during the entire encounter.
2. Circuit 2 (Shown in black) - this network will begin construction after Circuit 1 has been completed. It will, thus, start in March (real world time), and will be completed in 2 weeks (real world time). During state of war, any enemy submarine crossing this line will be continuously monitored by the Navy, which will try to stay within striking distance of the ship. All allied ships will be monitored for movement.
3. Circuit 3 (shown in red) - this network will begin construction after Circuit 2 has been completed. It will, thus, start the 2nd week of March and will be completed by the end of March. This circuit, which is very small, may go inside the territorial waters of other nations, and thus will be completed in secrecy.
4. Circuit 4 (shown in pink) - this network will begin construction after Circuit 2 has been completed. It will, thus, start the 2nd week of March and will be completed in 2 weeks time.
5. Circuit 5 (shown in green) - this network will begin construction after Circuit 3 and 4 have been completed. It will take 5 weeks to complete and will enable the western and eastern fleet to maintain supreme control over their territories by observing the presence of all ships.
6. Circuit 6 (shown in blue) - this network will begin construction after Circuit 6 has been completed. This is the least priority circuit and may be scrapped if required. The purpose of this is to get an advanced knowledge of the movement of ships as it begins its journey from international ports. This will take more than 2 months of construction.
Thus, by the end April, the entire operating region of the Karnalian Navy will be monitored by the ASDS and by July, all the circuits should be completed.
The previous network's information can be seen here.
