StarFish 990FTheultimatehighresolutionStarFishsidescansonarforextreme image

definitionand targetdetection. The sonar usesa high frequency1MHz

CHIRP transmissionwith extremelynarrowhorizontal acousticbeam to

provide the sharpest, most defined images from any StarFish system.

thesonar is ideal forhigh resolutionsurvey inports&harbours, inland

waterways such as rivers and canals, and excels when used for SAR

(Search And Recovery/Rescue) operations. The sonar also has an inline
