The Smart Sonobuoy Threat Detection Network offers:

• Persistent Monitoring through a low-cost, energy-efficient, and cooperative sonobuoy network
• Hybrid and Modular Sensing Architecture by utilising a multi-sensor approach and a modular, edge-to-cloud processing model. 
• Cooperative and Event-Driven Operation as the buoys operate cooperatively, using a control protocol to coordinate neighbouring sensors.
• Enhanced System Intelligence and Defence, as the network is complemented by a digital twin framework
