c. <strong>Tactical</strong> Sonar Range (TSR). The TSR for ships <strong>and</strong> helicopters is decided <strong>and</strong> promulgated<br />

by the OTC or comm<strong>and</strong>er/coordinator to whom the duty is delegated. When sonars of significantly different<br />

capabilities are present in the same force, the OTC may elect to promulgate more than one TSR. TSR enables<br />

the ASW or screen comm<strong>and</strong>er to station units to optimize ASW defense. TSR is also used for calculating the<br />

distance apart at which units are stationed during ASW action. TSR is based on reported PSRs <strong>and</strong> may make<br />

allowance for probable submarine depth <strong>and</strong> other tactical consideration. For tactical convenience, TSRs are<br />

expressed in multiples of 500 yards, <strong>and</strong> normally should not be greater than the appropriate PSR.<br />
