organisation profile
- The SACLANT Undersea Research Centre was established at La Spezia, Italy, in 1959. It is the only purely research laboratory operated by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and serves as the Command's principal adviser on undersea research.
The essence of the Centre's work is to understand and predict the impact of the undersea environment on sonar performance and to investigate new sonar concepts, although other detection methods are not ignored.
A large part of the Centre's work is the conduct of combined sea trials in physical oceanography and underwater acoustics.
