The Canadian Forces Maritime Experimental and Test Ranges(CFMETR) is a maritime test facility... located over an area of Nanoose Bay that is several hundred feet deep, several dozen kilometres long and several kilometres wide over a seabed composed of soft mud and free of underwater obstacles. The facility employs a 3-dimensional sonar tracking system for monitoring the performance and position of objects in these waters for real-time tracking. Equipment tested at the facility consists of a variety of devices, including sonobuoys, sonar systems(ship and aircraft), torpedos and the repair and overhaul of the dipping sonar used on Canada's Sea King helicopter fleet. 2, record 1, English, - Canadian%20Forces%20Maritime%20Experimental%20and%20Test%20Ranges

Embarked maritime helicopter operations. When embarked on a warship at sea, maritime helicopters rely on the ship's protection. In turn, the ship depends on the maritime helicopter to provide early warning of surface and sub-surface threats as well as measures against the sub-surface threat.
