Remote Minehunting Systems

Abstract

The AN/WLD-1(V)1 Remote Minehunting System (RMS) is a mine reconnaissance system designed for the detection, classification, identification, and localization of bottom and moored targets in shallow and deep water. RMS is a fully integrated system consisting of a semi-submersible Remote Multi-Mission Vehicle (RMMV) carrying a towed variable depth sensor. Line-Of-Sight (LOS) and Over-The-Horizon (OTH) telemetry provides vehicle Command and Control and mine reconnaissance sensor data transmission to/from a system aboard a Navy ship. RMS will provide the Navy the capability to keep ships and sailors out of the minefield.
