The aramid fibre core of the Trout array is extremely strong, with virtually no stretching at operational array speeds. At the heart of MAI's Trout Towed Sonar Hydrophone Array is a central core of ultra high strength aramid fibres. This photograph shows a fibre winding process.
High Strength
Center Core
Unlike pure axial fibre configurations, the MAI Trout core is highly resistant to shear failure while still maintaining great tensile strength. For very high speed applications, composite fibre constructions are used.
