Among the features of WADER are dedicated, independently verified, low- and high- frequency propagation loss models; a 2D, 360-degree tactical probability of detection display; 3D seabed and probability of detection rendering; and multi-plot functionality for multiple on-screen calculations.
WADER applications include research, training, operational sonar performance prediction, anti-submarine warfare and acoustic analysis before and after missions.
