• A sonobuoy (a portmanteau of sonar and buoy) is a relatively
small buoy (typically 13 cm or 5 in, in diameter and 91 cm or
3 ft long) expendable sonar system that is dropped/ejected
from aircraft or ships conducting anti-submarine warfare or
underwater acoustic research. A tactical sonar system for
transmitting submarine activity, the sonobuoy is a core
technology for anti-submarine warfare.
