MH-60R Seahawk helicopters of the us Navy will receive Magnetic Anomaly Detection-Extended Role (MAD-XR) detectors manufactured by the canadian company CAE, reports the Drive.

The publication writes that this equipment will help in the "hunt" for potentially enemy submarines, primarily Russian and Chinese. "The decision to add this equipment to the new Seahawk was made due to the fact that Russia and China continue to develop and implement more advanced submarines and increase their underwater activities in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, as well as in the Arctic region," the Drive notes.

The CAE report States that the MAD-XR is a highly sensitive magnetometer designed to detect changes in the Earth's magnetic field and is used as a sensor for detecting submarines. The 1.5-kilogram MAD-XR has an anomaly detection range of 1.2 kilometers. This system allows joint operation with hydroacoustic buoys.

Lockheed Martin, an American Corporation, is responsible for integrating this equipment into the MH-60R Seahawk.

In March, the publication the Aviationist recalled that the specialists of the Russian design Bureau "Kamov" selflessly gave the designers of the American company AVX Soviet technologies that helped the latter develop the project of the reconnaissance and attack helicopter Compound Coaxial Helicopter (CCH).

In December 2018, captain of the third rank of the reserve Maxim Klimov noticed that the Russian Navy does not have modern means of detecting low-noise American military submarines.
