"Jive" on Acoustic Vulnerabilities of Borei SSBNs

 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.
