Quantum Sensors are highly sensitive detectors that have the potential to improve our sensing capabilities for Anti-Submarine Warfare. There are three different types of sensors (Nitrogen Vacancy Diamonds, Silicone Carbide Magnetometers, and Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDS)) that are the best candidates for Anti-Submarine Warfare. Throughout this paper, these three sensors and their capabilities are reviewed. Based on this, it is eventually concluded which of the three sensors would be most optimal for quantum sensing. This paper is based on published reports as well as meetings with experts at the Johns Hopkins University - Applied Physics Laboratory and representatives from companies that produce quantum sensors.
