The invention relates to position determining equipment for towed vehicles and more particularly a system for determining the relative position between an underwater vehicle being towed submerged and the tow ship. The invention is directed to determining and separately storing, at frequent intervals, range and bearing information of one or more towed vehicles with respect to the towing vessel to the end that such information is available on a substantially current basis for plotting at any desired time the then geographic position of a selected towed vehicle.
