- defrost 3y agoI didn't say difficult, I did layout precisely what is involved at entry level in magnetic surveying. Sub detection in deep water is different problem to shallow, there's unlikely to be another magnetic source below the sub in deep water ... unlikely, but ... Small surface magnetic objects can be masked by much much larger and deeper (in the earth or in the ocean) magnetic sources. It's a field strength fall off with distance thing, and "mapping" is an inversion problem. Now that we know, how does this help us to hide a submarine?
