Explain

"By changing the tow vehicle's depth, the sensor can be deployed in different thermal layers."

Can an expert explain why this would be a benefit? --203.6.205.22 22:47, 15 February 2007 (UTC) Done :-) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.177.92.84 (talk) 10:00, 5 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The target submarine may be hiding in a different layer to the one that the array is in, so you fly the streamer down to a different layer. It is also handy if there is a ship that could cut the streamer, you fly the streamer down underneath the ship. The ones I worked on had wings every 300m to allow you to do this.
