Sea TENTACLE Deployment Complete
The Total Ship Systems Engineering (TSSE) Sea Tentacle force composition (CLICK) consisted of 3 Sea TENTACLE ships with a combined internal payload as shown. The arrival timeline (CLICK) shows that the 3 Sea TENTACLE ships arrive at the South Western corner of the AOR on Day 6 and begin deploying their systems of sensors, with this task complete by Day 10. The Sea Tentacle geographical representation (CLICK) shows a light blue line which outlines the AOR, representing the sensor system “area” where the Sea TENTACLE ships deployed the UUVs and man-portable bottom sensors. Red assets are also shown, with all 8 enemy submarines underway in the AOR. (CLICK) The Sea Tentacle’s OV-1 can be seen here. (CLICK)
