Abstract

It is necessary to review the basic characteristics of single/double-stage vibration isolation.

U.S. intelligence services have long tracked former Soviet Union (FSU) submarines. In the mid-80s, the United States found that the radiation noise of FSU submarines had suddenly dropped tremendously, which was abnormal and was quickly reported to the US Department of Defense. According to the analysis of the Technical Department, the United States drew the unanimous conclusion: “It seems that the Soviets have mastered raft technology.”

—Junior Johnson, Commander of the US Navy
