A sensor assembly suitable for use in an airborne shooter localization system. The sensor assembly has a pressure sensor subassembly with a pressure transducer positioned to detect pressure variations associated with a shock wave from a passing projectile or the muzzle blast following the shock wave. To substantially increase the signal to noise ratio for measurements of the shock wave, the pressure sensor subassembly attenuates pressure fluctuations triggered by turbulent airflow over the surface of the subassembly more than it attenuates the shock wave. This preferential attenuation is provided by separating the pressure transducer from the surface of the sensor assembly by a cavity large enough that the pressure fluctuations are substantially attenuated as they propagate across the cavity. Additionally, features of a housing that holds the pressure sensor subassembly facilitate use on an aircraft. Those features include flexibility that allows the sensor assembly to conform to curved surfaces, a skin that provides resistance to environmental conditions and allows the sensor assembly to be attached with an adhesive, and a body region that provides high vibrational impedance to prevent low frequency mechanical vibrations from being coupled to the pressure transducer.
