Modern day combat warships are an integration of a large number of subsystems and components. Each of these systems communicates to a common combat management system. Anti-submarine warfare systems being an integral part of the combat management system, integration of multiple types of sonar systems or integrated sonar suite (ISS) offer complete solutions and tactical advantage against a potential threat. The operational requirements, the environment, the functional requirements and physical configuration of ISS are all discussed in this paper from the systems engineering point of view. Innovative methods are presented to capture the user requirements of ISS without compromising the classified nature of the subject.
