Interesting AF. Submarine de-magentization facility.

Forgot to add. Found this interesting article from 2008 also.

It's a way of making a submarine less detectable.
Operation
To reduce interference from electrical equipment or metal in the fuselage of the aircraft, the MAD sensor is placed at the end of a boom or on a towed aerodynamic device.[4] Even so, the submarine must be very near the aircraft's position and close to the sea surface for detection of the anomaly, because magnetic fields decrease as the inverse cube of distance.[4] The size of the submarine, its hull composition and orientation determine the detection range. MAD devices are usually mounted on aircraft.

Which, by the way, it is anon's thinking that this is really what all the hubub in the South China Sea and the Spratley Islands is really all about. If you look at a map of the seafloor, and the generally shallow depths of those waters, you might begin to see the ChiComms desire to control them. Being shallow increases the risk of magnetic anomaly detection. They want the ability to get their Ballistic Missile Submarines into deep water before they have the possibility of foreign military assets being above them.

Absolutely. No pun intended. Fear politics. A stab at the collective US consciousness.
