Sabotage operations underwater

Seabed warfare refers to military operations underwater, on the ocean floor or below, often executed via submarines. This includes the deployment of underwater mines, the installation of surveillance equipment on internet cables (as an aspect of cyberwarfare) and the sabotaging of infrastructure.

Definition

Seabed warfare is defined as “operations to, from and across the ocean floor.”[1]

Sound Surveillance System

Full article: Surveillance

The Sound Surveillance System (SOSUS) was developed by the U.S. Navy during the Cold War in order to detect Soviet submarines by using an extensive network of underwater microphones laid on the seabed in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.[2] It was renamed to Integrated Undersea Surveillance System (IUSS) in 1985 and declassified in 1991.[3]
