They were used by submarines to navigate when not in open waters, They were also used by submarines and anti-submarine ships to locate enemy submarines.
yes
Not used in WWI, it was designed as a part of Manhattan Project and used on submarines and other vessels during WWII.
Sonar was not introduced in World War 1.
True
During World War II, the introduction of sonar significantly transformed naval warfare strategies. It enabled ships and submarines to detect enemy vessels and submarines more effectively, leading to enhanced anti-submarine warfare tactics. This technology prompted the development of coordinated fleet operations and improved convoy systems to protect merchant shipping from U-boat attacks. Additionally, sonar's capabilities shifted focus towards more aggressive submarine hunting strategies, fundamentally changing naval engagements in the Atlantic theater.
yes
Sonar was used to detect and hunt submarines in WW2
Sonar technology has evolved from passive sonar systems used in World War I to active sonar systems that emit sound waves and detect their reflections. Modern sonar systems use advanced signal processing and computer algorithms for higher precision and improved target detection capabilities. Additionally, new developments in underwater acoustics have led to the use of multibeam sonar systems for mapping and imaging the seafloor with high resolution.

Sonar was used widely in World War II in an effort to locate enemy submarines. It wasn't as sophisticated as it is today, but it did help. Actual numbers are difficult to come by, but sonar was effective in the successful attacks on several submarines.
The first documented use of sonar was during World War I by the British Royal Navy to detect submarines. The technology was further developed during World War II for anti-submarine warfare.
Sonar was first used during World War I by the British Royal Navy. It was used to detect submarines by emitting sound waves and analyzing the echoes that bounced back.
