A close friend has referred me to "Jive Turkey's" Youtube "Project "Northwind"955 Borei" SSBN at https://youtu.be/gKNqVOHs71Q and below:
"Jive" uploaded it on May 5, 2019. "Jive's" rapidly rising and articulate "Sub Brief" presence is proving an eye-opener for submarine aficionados as well as for sonar-people on other platforms (eg. skimmers and aircraft). I haven't seen sonar analysis details discussed in this depth in "Jives" many Youtubes anywhere/any time.
Bits I find most interesting include:
- 0 to 60 seconds where "Jive" describes what he did in the USN and in what era, security clearance etc.
- 14:45 "Acoustic Vulnerability" of the Borei as determined on sonar spectrum display, including
vulnerabilities correlated with:
= Continuous running seamless hydraulic pump
= High demand transient
= Missile tube preparation
= Motor generator harmonics
= Swarths
= Station keeping
and
= Hull pop.

All very interesting. Another "Jive" youtube later this week.
