The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division has a requirement for Hydrophone Window (P/N: 6029148-301), Hydrophone Cable (P/N: 6933090-303), Thermistor Cable (P/N: 6933090-304), and Transducer Cable (P/N: 6933090-305). The window is a rubber boot that is mounted over the TR-333 hydrophone sensor. The design provides optimum acoustical properties for the Navigation of the SSBN Trident Submarine. The window is required in the manufacture and repair of the SP24 TR-333 Hydrophones currently deployed in the TRIDENT Submarine Fleet. The cables are used in the Trident Navigation Subsystem Sonar on the TR-333 Hydrophone, TR-143 Transducer and the Thermistor sensors. These are underwater cables to be used as replacement assets during normal refit/replenish/replacement operations. TR-333 Hydrophones and Cables are part of the TRIDENT Submarine SP24 Navigation Program.
