Military stages antisub drill in West Sea

The South Korean military conducted an antisubmarine drill in the West Sea on Thursday to mark the first day of the five-day joint military exercise designed to enhance its defense capabilities against North Korean provocations.

Mobilizing top-of-the-line naval and air assets, the military practiced searching for and chasing enemy submarines, dropping antisubmarine bombs and firing mock torpedoes in the sea near the scene of the March 26 naval disaster that took the lives of 46 sailors.

Using the “towed array sonar system,” the 4,500-ton destroyer Choi Young practiced detecting suspicious underwater objects. Lynx antisubmarine helicopters and the P-3C maritime aircraft were also mobilized to find the location of enemy submarines.
