Quote The ANN/SQQ-89 UWCS provides warships with a seamlessly intergrated undersea warfare detection, localization, classification and targeting capability. The system presents an intergrated picture of the tactical situation by receiving, combining and processing, active and passive sensor data, from the hull mounted array, towed array and sonobuoys. The system is intergrated with the AEGIS combat system and provides a full spectrum of USW options including active and passive sensors, underwater fire control, onboard trainer, and highly evolved display subsystem. The system is deployed on 100 Arleigh Burke, Spruance, class destroyers its also deployed on Tisconderoga class cruisers. Quote

I think its a great system , and now that our ships are in the gulf more now and the Iranian navy has kilo subs its a good system to have in that respect. What do guys think?
