The Impeccable is actually unarmed (other than a couple small arms in a locker somewhere) and crewed by civilians, as it's a privately owned vessel built specifically to be contracted to the government. The only Navy personnel on board deal specifically with the sonar equipment, probably just a handful of junior enlisted personnel.

Also the transducer isn't actually on the vessel, its towed in the water behind it.
