	MK 36 SRBOC
		Decoy employment is used primarily to defend against anti-ship missiles which have avoided detection and penetrated to the terminal-defense area that represents an imminent threat to ownship.
		The MK 36 Super Rapid Bloom Offboard Countermeasures (SRBOC) Chaff and Decoy Launching System is an evolutionary development of the RBOC family with enhanced capability.
		The MK 36 is a deck-mounted, mortar-type countermeasure system that may be used to launch an array of chaff cartridges against a variety of threats.

	SRBOC (Mk 36) - Archived 7/2001
		The SRBOC, and similar decoy systems, are often the only protection available. And even when more sophisticated protection can be fielded, chaff and flares provide vital backup protection. With the system deployed in large numbers around the world, the market for new equipment, support, improved countermeasures and better control will remain viable for some time.
		Nearly all decoy launchers, including SRBOC, offer infrared decoy flares as an alternative payload, while laser obscurant thermal smoke rounds are becoming common. These smoke rounds, originally developed for armored fighting vehicles, may become important as a counter to laser-guided and optronic missiles.
		The sophistication of missile seeker heads is forcing decoy operators to adopt active expendable jammers – lightweight disposable signal sources carried in a decoy round and kept airborne for a period of several minutes by a parachute or hovering rocket.

	Armament
		SRBOC stands for Super Rapid Blooming Offboard Chaff.
		If a radar-guided missile were to be fired at THETIS, a SRBOC round would be launched as a countermeasure.
		SRBOC rounds can be fired from Combat or the Bridge.
